Marvel Epic Calacatta Viola 60 x 120cm Polished - Royal Purple Marble Luxury
Experience the extraordinary rarity of Italy's most exclusive marble with our Marvel Epic Calacatta Viola polished porcelain, where pristine white Carrara backgrounds are dramatically traversed by bold purple and violet veining that only nature's most exceptional geological events could create. Each 60 x 120cm tile captures the breathtaking beauty of genuine Calacatta Viola—the marble so rare that even Italian palaces seldom feature it—with sweeping purple veins ranging from deep amethyst to delicate lavender, interwoven with threads of gold and grey that create compositions of unparalleled sophistication. This premium porcelain achieves the impossible: making one of the world's most exclusive marbles accessible through advanced HD technology and high-polished finishing that recreates every nuance of this geological masterpiece without the prohibitive cost and maintenance challenges of natural Calacatta Viola.
Why Choose Marvel Epic Calacatta Viola?
Calacatta Viola represents the absolute pinnacle of marble exclusivity—a stone so rare that each natural slab commands prices that place it beyond most luxury projects. Found only in specific quarries near Carrara where unique mineral conditions created purple manganese deposits within pure white marble, natural Calacatta Viola is the stuff of legend among architects and designers. Our Marvel Epic interpretation captures this extraordinary stone through revolutionary imaging technology that reproduces the complex interplay of purple veining with its characteristic cloud-like diffusion, where violet seems to bleed into white like watercolour on silk.
What distinguishes our Marvel Epic Calacatta Viola is the sophisticated reproduction of the marble's unique chromatic drama. The purple veining isn't uniform but displays the full spectrum from deep Byzantine purple through royal violet to soft lavender, exactly as found in natural stone. Gold undertones within the purple create warmth and complexity, while grey secondary veining provides depth and movement. The base white maintains Calacatta's characteristic warm ivory tone rather than stark white, allowing the purple drama to sing without harsh contrast. Multiple tile faces ensure variety across installations, preventing the repetition that betrays lesser marble-effect tiles.
The polished finish elevates this exceptional design to mirror-like brilliance, amplifying both the purple drama and the subtle complexities within the white field. The 60 x 120cm large format maximises the impact of the sweeping purple veins, allowing complete vein movements to express themselves as nature intended. This scale, combined with porcelain's technical advantages—zero porosity, consistent thickness, superior strength—delivers Calacatta Viola's beauty without its fragility, maintenance demands, or astronomical cost, democratising one of nature's rarest luxuries.
Perfect Applications for Calacatta Viola
Statement Living Spaces

Luxurious Master Bathrooms
Create bathroom sanctuaries worthy of Roman empresses where purple-veined marble transforms daily routines into royal ceremonies.

Use on feature walls where the veining can flow vertically like purple waterfalls, or on floors where the polish creates mirror-like pools of reflection. The purple tones are particularly flattering in bathroom lighting, creating healthy, warm glows. Book-matching tiles creates butterfly patterns where purple veins create stunning symmetry. Perfect for those seeking marble luxury with unique character. Explore our bathroom tiles collection.

Strategic lighting transforms the purple veining throughout the day.
Powder Room Drama

Installation & Maintenance
Large Format Polished Installation
Installing 60 x 120cm polished Calacatta Viola requires expertise worthy of the material's prestige. The purple veining demands careful selection and placement—randomly positioned tiles waste the dramatic potential. Book-matching creates stunning butterfly effects where purple veins mirror across joints. The polished surface requires extreme care during installation to prevent scratching. Use white adhesive exclusively to prevent any colour showing through the white base. Level absolutely perfectly—polished surfaces reveal any substrate irregularities. Professional installation strongly recommended for this investment-grade material.
Vein Pattern Planning
Maximising Calacatta Viola's impact requires strategic planning:
- Lay out tiles dry to evaluate vein flow
- Photograph different arrangements before fixing
- Position dramatic veining at focal points
- Consider viewing angles for best appreciation
- Book-match where possible for symmetry
- Plan cuts to avoid disrupting major veins
Polished Surface Protection
During installation protect the mirror finish:
- Cover tiles with protective film until completion
- Remove adhesive immediately from surface
- Use non-abrasive grout floats
- Clean with soft cloths only
- Avoid dragging anything across surface
- Final polish after all work complete
Maintaining Purple Marble Perfection
The polished porcelain surface requires minimal but consistent care. Daily dust mopping prevents abrasive particles scratching the polish. Damp mop with pH-neutral cleaners maintains brilliance without buildup. The porcelain surface won't stain or etch like natural marble, but avoid harsh chemicals that might dull the polish. Occasional machine polishing restores maximum brilliance. The purple veining remains vivid indefinitely—no fading or colour change. Professional maintenance annually keeps the surface showroom perfect.
