Powerful Darkness & Timeless Prestige in Architectural Design.
The Bold Character of Taurus Black Marble
Taurus Black Marble is the ultimate expression of strength, depth, and architectural authority — a dramatic natural stone defined by its deep black background enriched with striking white and light grey veining. Powerful yet elegant, Taurus Black Marble is designed for interiors and architectural spaces where bold identity and timeless prestige are essential.
Quarried from carefully selected regions of Turkey, Taurus Black Marble stands among the most distinctive members of the Turkish Marble family, globally recognized for durability, visual intensity, and high architectural value. Its commanding color palette and expressive veining make it a preferred choice for luxury projects that seek impact without compromise.
​
Formed over millions of years through intense geological processes, Taurus Black Marble reveals a dense crystalline structure with dynamic calcite veins cutting through the dark surface. Each slab carries a unique composition, allowing designers to create statement surfaces with strong visual rhythm and depth.
