Dense American marble quarried in Vermont. A warm off-white that holds up better in a kitchen than most Italian white marbles.
Danby marble is quarried in Danby, Vermont, from one of the largest underground marble quarries in the world. It reads as a warm off-white with soft, linear veining in gray, gold or green depending on the block, and it is denser and less absorbent than most Italian white marbles.
That density is the reason to choose it. Danby holds up better in a working kitchen than Carrara or Calacatta while still being marble, with the look that goes with it. It is also quarried a few hours north of Fairfield County, which matters to clients and architects who care where their materials come from. Compare it with other white stones on our marble page.
Danby is still marble, so acids will etch it. It is more resistant than Italian white marbles, with lower absorption and better stain resistance. Seal it at installation and test it about once a year. A honed finish is still the safer choice for kitchen counters.
Every top is templated, laid out and cut in our Bridgeport shop and installed by our own crew. We photograph your slab, place the template over the photo, and you approve where the veins and seams fall before anything is cut. Installation is usually one to two weeks after templating.

Natural stone changes from slab to slab, even within one name. Come to our Bridgeport yard, choose the actual slabs for your job, and approve the layout before we cut.
