Wombeyan Cream: complete guide
Wombeyan Cream is an Australian cream-coloured marble with a delicate, natural tone. It is chosen by those looking for a cream that is uncommon in Europe.
History and origin
It comes from Australia, from the Wombeyan area in New South Wales. Australian marbles are rarely seen on the European market and are imported in limited quantities. Wombeyan Cream is valued for residential interiors and design projects. Marmi di Carrara supplies it on request.
Look and veining
The background is cream, with lighter or slightly pinkish hues. Clouding and soft veins may be present. The pattern varies from slab to slab; polishing makes the tone warmer, honing softer.
