    The Classic White has a bright white background with light grey linear veins running through the entire stone. The Classic White Lunar has gray undertones and occasional deep gray veins throughout the stone as well.  In general, the Lunar is darker than the Classic White.

  • Eric 08:48PM, May 11 2012

    Is there a difference between Classic White and Classic White Lunar?

  • Marble.com - Kinga 07:35PM, May 11 2012

    The sample you have is called Classic White Lunar. Our stone called Moon Night is also known as Super White. Good luck!

  • Eric 06:08PM, May 11 2012

    I got a sample from S. Plainfield a few days ago - it was numbered 3801. Is that the same as Super White, or do I have a different sample?

  • Marble.com - Kinga 08:18PM, Apr 13 2012

     You can always test a sample of the stone. Spill wine, orange juice, tomato sauce and so on to see and understand how the stone will react with different spills and how long it will take for it to stain or etch. Good luck!

  • Marble.com - Derek 03:27PM, Apr 13 2012

    We cannot guarantee that the stone will not etch, because it's a natural stone. I recommend to have the surface honed to minimize the risk of etching and to acquire a sample to see how it looks.

  • AllyMcWeb 10:37PM, Apr 12 2012

    By etching I mean reacting instantly with acids like wine. I haven't found them to be staining or scratching at all.

  • AllyMcWeb 10:29PM, Apr 12 2012

    Do you have any Classic White Quartzite slabs that you know for sure are not etching? If it exists, I would love to find it.

  • Marble.com - Derek 04:29PM, Feb 14 2012 Classic White has been called Bianca Quartzite in other places, and yes we have this stone in-stock at our Ridgefield Park, NJ and South Plainfield, NJ locations.
  • Danyale717 04:00AM, Feb 11 2012 Do you have any Bianca quartzite? It looks like the pictures you have posted. If so what is the price for sq foot. Im located in NJ.
  • Marble.com - Derek 07:47PM, Jan 20 2012 At the moment, we have Classic White in-stock at our Ridgefield Park, NJ and South Plainfield, NJ locations. It is a popular stone and we're trying our best to receive new deliveries as much as possible.
  • Knainfantino 09:32PM, Jan 19 2012 Hi - do you have any slabs or samples of the Classic white in your Deer Park NY location - I am looking to do something close to a carrera or aqua marble that is a bit more durable....Thanks
  • Marble.com - Kinga 02:48PM, Jan 19 2012 Yes we do! Come on in with your layout and measurements for an instant quote and to view this wonderful stone!
  • Ssullivan7696 03:32AM, Jan 19 2012 Do you have the classic white available in Danbury
  • Marble.com - Derek 03:02PM, Jan 11 2012 The Classic White will not etch as much as marble, but it's not as durable as granite. The proper classification for the stone itself, is that it's a Quartzite. It's quite dense but will stain if not sealed often (every six months or so). It's good that you've tested out the sample yourself to see how the stone reacts, many clients purchase the stone without doing the proper research and sometimes they are disappointed. What I can say is that we install the Classic White in kitchens all the time and it's an extremely popular stone and the clients tell us that it's the closest white-marble looking stone to real granite in terms of durability and maintenance.
  • Marble.com - Kinga 02:00PM, Jan 10 2012 Samples are a great way to test the durability and stain resistance before you purchase your countertop. I’ve heard mixed opinions from customers on the durability. Some people have absolutely no problems with scratching and staining while others are just the opposite. Classic White requires more maintenance such as thorough, daily cleaning and re-sealing every several months. Sealing is a simple process, however. You can purchase a sealer from MrStone.com, spray- wait 10 to 15 minutes and wipe; that’s all! If you are after that wonderful marble look, Classic White is a great option. But if you need something more durable, darker stones are denser which means less maintenance. Hope this helps!
  • Leahrieder 01:25AM, Jan 10 2012 i"m trying to determine the durability of the classic white. I took a sample home from your showroom and cut on it with a knife. Your sales rep told me its as durable as granite and you can cut on it when I did the sample scratched badly!
  • Marble.com - Derek 06:14PM, Dec 8 2011 It's actually neither. The stone itself is classified as granite for identification purposes, as it has a similar durability to granite. The Classic White however is a natural quartzite. I recommend for you to acquire a sample and test it out yourself by placing yellow turmeric powder on the sample for some time then wiping it off to see if it stains. Remember that the stone must be sealed to be stain resistant.
  • Dhanashree Vaidya 08:52AM, Dec 5 2011 Plz let me know classic white is granite or marble or somthing else and how do you recommend it for Indian Cooking which involves yellow termeric powder (regarding stains)
  • Marble.com - Derek 06:38PM, Dec 1 2011 Do you mean a 13 foot run in length by 3 feet in width?
  • Marble.com - Derek 06:33PM, Dec 1 2011 We do not recommend to use the Classic White anywhere outside, as it's not as durable as standard granite.
  • Kokopop1 03:52PM, Dec 1 2011 Thanks Derek . Do you have enough to cover a 13 by 3?
  • Marble.com - Derek 02:52PM, Dec 1 2011 At the moment, we have Classic White in-stock at our Ridgefield Park NJ, South Plainfield NJ and Deer Park NY locations: www.marble.com/locations It's currently a popular stone so our stock depletes fast although we are constantly receiving new deliveries.
  • Eml2th-09 06:26AM, Dec 1 2011 Is this suitable for use on external facade and carved for classical mouldings
  • Jcoury 09:28PM, Nov 27 2011 Do you have 1623 in stock and in what location. I need a 13 by 3.

    John
  • Marble.com - Derek 06:58PM, Nov 23 2011 What is the application for the stone? Will it be a countertop for a kitchen or bathroom?
  • Sally 04:01AM, Nov 20 2011 Do you have any white stone with any brown/beige or gold lines throughout?
  • Marble.com - Derek 05:32PM, Nov 10 2011 We have Classic White available at our Ridgefield Park, NJ facility. Come visit and view the full slabs! You can also take free samples home with you.
  • Michaelsciaretta 06:39PM, Nov 7 2011 Do you have classic white internet id #936 currently available in your new jersey locations?
  • Marble.com - Derek 06:47PM, Oct 18 2011 While Montclair Danby is marble, it's less porous than the average white marble. If you were to used it as a kitchen countertop, having a honed surface is a must. Also resealing the stone every six months to keep it stain resistant. There is no rule that says you cannot hope marble for a kitchen countertop, although it's a fact that it will age faster than granite and requires more maintenance. For pricing comparisons, you must contact the sales office. Hope this helps.
  • Elke 04:14AM, Oct 16 2011 I'm not crazy about white fantasy, I don't like the look as much as Classic White. Someone by you suggested going with montclair danby- I like the look of the stone but its marble, not granite. Isn't that more porous and requires more maintenance and sealing to prevent chips and staining? How would you compare the Classic White to the Montclair Danby in durability and price?
  • Marble.com - Derek 07:07PM, Oct 12 2011 Check out White Fantasy -- it's closer to a granite and my database tells me that we have some slabs that are 122" in length at our Ridgefield Park, NJ location.
  • Elke 05:03PM, Oct 12 2011 I am looking for a stone that has the look similar to Carrera Marble but more durable and less porous...
  • Marble.com - Derek 02:34PM, Oct 11 2011 Are you looking for specifically Classic White, or other options may also interest you? Because we have stones that are longer than 120", just not Classic White.
  • Marble.com - Kinga 09:57PM, Oct 10 2011 The longest Classic White which is located in our Ridgefield Park, NJ facility is only 113” long. Slabs vary from 70” to 139” depending on the stone and shipment. Please note we do not sell full slabs as we are a fabricator.
  • Elke 02:15PM, Oct 10 2011 I'm looking for a slab of 120"- is that something you can get? Thanks.
  • Marble.com - Derek 08:54PM, Oct 5 2011 We do not have Classic White available in Danbury at the moment. It's in-stock in both of our New Jersey and Deer Park, NJ locations: www.marble.com/locations
  • Jfang100 08:31PM, Oct 5 2011 do you have classic white slab in stock in Danbury, CT?
  • Marble.com - Derek 07:40PM, Sep 28 2011 Come to one of our New Jersey locations and take a look yourself. We're getting new deliveries frequently of this popular and timeless stone. Some slabs are more muted than others.

  • glory 02:06PM, Aug 20 2011 I like the classic white, do you have inventory in the southern california area?  Los Angeles?
  • Marble.com - Derek 12:50PM, Aug 11 2011 Depending on the batch, it may have some soft and occasional streaks of beige/creme, you must look at the slabs in-person. Classic White is a popular stone because it matches the durability of a true granite in a kitchen application, so it's a solid choice.
  • Bonniecoop9 08:12AM, Aug 10 2011 Does Classic White ever have some streaks of beige?Am thinking of using this with white lacquer cabinets and limestone floors. What do you think?
    Any other suggestions for kitchen counters.mainly white?Am not averse to marble but prefer durability of granite.
  • Marble.com - Derek 09:28PM, Aug 1 2011 The Classic White is a 'hot' buy because of it's strength and durability while it compares closely in look to traditional marble. Our NJ locations usually receive the new deliveries of this stone at this moment.
  • Marble.com - Kinga 03:53PM, Aug 1 2011 Unfortunately, the Deer Park location does not carry this stone. However, the Ridgefield Park location does have this stone in stock. For pricing and availability, please contact that location directly. http://www.marble.com/contact
  • Edwardmcnally212 03:29AM, Aug 1 2011 Having seen some earlier comments, hoping that your LI store may now carry this stone?
  • Marble.com - Derek 01:11PM, Jul 29 2011 Take a look at Elegant Brown. We don't have a large quartzite selection, there are more choices in granite.
  • Aliciaot 04:41PM, Jul 28 2011 Do you have any other quartzite materials? I am looking for a white quartzite with more beige/gold veining.......Such as sky gold or Mont blanc

  • JimM 12:15AM, Jun 6 2011 Hi. I love the Classic White, do you have any in NJ?
  • MBLil 09:53PM, May 26 2011 Do you have any Classic White with the horizontal veining such as the stone slabs in ID: 936 in either of your NJ locations currently? Many thanks!
    • All Granite and Marble 11:33AM, May 27 2011 MBLil: Yes, we have two good Classic White's with horizontal veining in the Ridgefield Park location. The frame numbers are 179R and 725L.
  • Felicia 02:29PM, May 15 2011 Ok. Thanks. I just noticed that you have a stone yard on Long Island as well and that's where I'm located. Do you have any Classic white there that has the more marbley look to it?
    • All Granite and Marble 11:44AM, May 17 2011 Felicia: We only have Classic White in-stock at our Ridgefield Park NJ, South Plainfield NJ locations at this moment.
  • Felicia 07:39PM, Apr 30 2011 Do you still have a similar type of Classic white like the one featured in the picture (ID 936) above in your NJ warehouse? How does it look honed and will it hold up as well as a kitchen counter as if it is polished?
    • All Granite and Marble 08:40AM, May 4 2011 Felicia: The Classic White we have at Ridgefield Park facility is closer to ID 1430. We install this stone in kitchens without any issues, it comes polished from the quarry and most people keep it that way. I recommend to have a sample honed and compare it with polished to see the maintenance and upkeep.
  • tommyA 10:08PM, Apr 22 2011 when you say its not a true granite, what does that exactly mean, what makes it a true granite?
    • All Granite and Marble 08:08AM, Apr 23 2011 TommyA: Classic White is closest to quartzite. That is a type of natural stone that is kind of in between granite and marble in terms durability. It's used in kitchens.
  • Eleanor windman 07:09AM, Mar 18 2011 Do you have any luca di Luna in stock with a fine horizontal line and if so which showroom...
    • All Granite and Marble 07:44AM, Mar 18 2011 Eleanor Windman: We do not carry Luca di Luna but we have stones like Moon Night, White Fantasy, White Vermont which are similar but the veining usually is not horizontal but more sporadic. To take a look I recommend to visit our Ridgefield Park, NJ location.
  • Sharon 07:36PM, Feb 27 2011 Hi, we are interested in ID # 936 Classic White Granite. I am assuming that this is the slab ID? We wanted to know if the line running from bottomright of the image all the way to topmiddle is a scuff mark from harvesting or is it part of the stone? We live in upstate NY and are very interested in this slab if availible and the line is NOT part of the stone. Thanks for your time.
    • All Granite and Marble 08:31AM, Feb 28 2011 Sharon: Please come down to look at the slabs in-person! You will be able to take free samples home with you. We have various deliveries of Classic White and they do not all contain the type of veining you're talking about. We have Classic White available at our Ridgefield Park, NJ and South Plainfield, NJ locations.
  • Shane 10:17PM, Jan 30 2011 Love this color and the veins that are running thru it. Would this be suitable for a wine bar. Naturally it would stain with age and use. But how would it hold up? I have a shelf that runs 17 feet along a wall. So, 204 inches of Granite is a bunch. Could it be sectioned off in several pieces and fastened on an existing ledge? Or would it have to be reinforced due to the weight? The width can vary 13" -16" is plenty. Shoot me an email. I would like to discuss prices. My place is in NYC so it might be out of your area. thanks shane
    • All Granite and Marble 10:13AM, Jan 31 2011 Shane: We operate in all of NYC so we will be happy to service you. I recommend to contact our Ridgefield Park, NJ sales office for pricing and to place an order. The Classic White is stronger than marble but it's not a true granite, kind of in the middle. It will require regular sealing about once a year so it stays stain resistant, but it still may stain with wine being used and all. We can fabricate the stone to your specifications, however you want it. We will come to template (measure) the bar for precise fabrication.
  • Sabrina 02:07PM, Jan 22 2011 what is the installed cost for this for kitchen counters per linear foot?
    • All Granite and Marble 10:37AM, Jan 24 2011 Sabrina: For an estimate, please contact our sales office or use our Online Estimate Tool: www.marble.com/estimate
  • robert 03:04PM, Oct 18 2010 hi...for kitchen countertops i love the look of danby white marble, but granite is softer and this marble is very expensive. which granite is closest in look: very white with light grey vein patterns?
    • All Granite and Marble 09:53AM, Oct 19 2010 Robert: Classic White has the hardness of granite and a marble-like look. Check out White Fantasy, it is another white granite with gray veins.
  • Beverly Pasquini 12:48PM, Sep 24 2010 I have knotty pine cabinets with ss appliances and wide board pine floors in a lg. 14x28 kitchen. Was thinking of classic white for counter tops or kashmir gold, colonial cream? I am looking for a french country look! What are your thoughts?? I forgot to mention lots of wood in kitchen, ceiling(high), wainscoting, window trim. white walls.
    • All Granite and Marble 11:00AM, Sep 28 2010 Beverly Pasquini: I'm leaning towards the Kashmir Gold or Colonial Cream. You want some warmth and those colors will provide this. The Classic White might be a little too cold & cool.
