New arrivals from Italy include curated bold and distinctive natural stones
Los Angeles, CA. (December 10, 2024)—Walker Zanger, a leader in the design and distribution of luxury natural and engineered surfaces, has announced the arrival of a new collection of premium stone slabs sourced from quarries across Italy. Focusing on unique, one-of-a-kind stones, the company is introducing a range of bold, vibrant selections that promise to inspire designers, architects, and homeowners alike.
“We’ve seen an extraordinary range of natural stones of the highest standards from all over the world, and we are thrilled to introduce these exclusive Italian selections to our customers for their luxury projects,” said Beth Cohn, President of the Showroom Division at Walker Zanger. “This collection opens new opportunities for our clients to elevate their designs with truly exceptional surfaces.”
This new collection, featuring thousands of slabs, will be showcased at Walker Zanger’s showrooms, with continuous shipments arriving directly from Italy, a region renowned for sourcing premium natural stone. The selection includes various materials, from bold, vibrant marble to distinctive quartzite. Noteworthy slabs in the collection include King Louis XVI marble, a luxurious and historically significant stone famously used in the construction of the Château de Versailles. This striking marble is characterized by its deep, rich reds, golds, and whites, often accented by dramatic veining.
Another standout is Ceppo Avoria, a new quartzite dating back centuries. Known for its warm, earthy palette of beige and gold, this stone is celebrated for its distinctive texture, featuring natural quartz crystals and mineral veining that weave through its surface.
“We are always excited to discover and acquire new surfaces, but the real thrill is finding those rare slabs that we know we will never see or source again,” said Christiane Martins, Director of Slab Procurement for Walker Zanger. “Each new shipment brings with it a sense of adventure, and we can’t wait to see the reactions when our clients experience these impressive pieces.”
The new slab collection offers a diverse range of popular materials, including bookmatched options, enabling designers to craft visually striking installations that leave a lasting impression. These distinctive surfaces are perfect for many projects, from luxury residential interiors to high-end commercial spaces.
