Rosa Salmão
SKU0006
Rosa Salmão is a serene salmon-pink marble quarried near Lagoa, Vila Viçosa. Its tone is soft and uniform, with almost no visible veining—just the faintest whisper of cloud-like movement in the crystalline matrix. The result is a calm, sun-washed surface that recalls spring sunsets on the Atlantic and lends interiors an effortless warmth. In thinner cuts it can even be back-lit to create a gentle, diffused glow.
