Saint Laurent
The French marble Saint Laurent (often also called Noir Saint Laurent) is a highly prized natural stone, easily recognizable for its elegant and decorative appearance. It is a deep black marble crossed by irregular white and golden veining, which creates a strong visual contrast.
It is quarried in France, historically in the Pyrenees region, and is a metamorphic rock of limestone origin. Its compact structure gives it good polishability, which is why it is often used in polished finishes that enhance its veining.
