Bianco Regina: Complete Guide
Bianco Regina is a commercial white marble with light gray veins. It is chosen for bathrooms, floors and bright claddings with a classic or contemporary taste.
History and origin
It is a catalog name that belongs to the family of veined white marbles, highly demanded on the international market. Origin and quarry are not documented with certainty and may depend on the supplier. Degree of whiteness and veining must be verified per batch. Carrara marbles are supplied on request.
Look and veining
The background is white, sometimes tending toward light gray or ivory, crossed by thin gray veins. The amount and pattern of the veins vary between slabs, allowing open‑spot laying with sequential slabs. Polished it is bright and luminous; honed it takes on a silky white.
