Monte
SKU0018
Monte is a rose-beige Portuguese marble defined by its linear, vein-cut movement: soft ribbons and gentle banding that give surfaces direction without turning them busy. The tone sits in a flattering “warm neutral” zone—more architectural than pink—so it pairs easily with oak, walnut, travertine tones, off-whites, and warm metals.
