Description
The Dark Emperador is a dark brown marble, with fine grain and some irregular and crossed lighter vein. It presents some occasional signs of calcite with small dimension. The Dark Emperador is a breccial type of stone. Its main variations depend normally on the different colour tones it may present (darker or lighter), but also on the amount of calcite (more or less).
There are many variations of this marble, but we prefer to present it as two main variations:
– First: higher selection, with a uniform darker brown colour, little white calcite and overall uniform look.
– Standard: also a higher selection, but presenting little more brown colour tone variation and white calcite. Selection is still high but price is more competitive.
