About Marmara Marble 12×24 Honed Tile

Material Education

Marmara marble is a rare white stone quarried from the islands of the Sea of Marmara in northwestern Turkey, prized for millennia for its exceptionally pure white background and subtle grey veining. This stone exhibits a fine, dense crystalline structure that gives it a smooth, velvety surface when honed, distinguishing it from brighter Italian whites with a warmer, more understated ivory undertone. Its gentle linear veining flows organically across each tile, creating a quiet visual rhythm that feels both classical and contemporary.

As a product of nature, each tile carries its own unique pattern of veining and tonal shifts — a hallmark of genuine natural stone that makes every installation one of a kind.

About this tile: This 12×24 honed tile offers a large-format rectangular field tile format ideal for expansive walls and floors, with the honed finish delivering a matte, non-reflective surface that highlights the stone's natural texture and subtle depth.

Design & Inspiration

Marmara's warm ivory-white palette pairs beautifully with brushed brass fixtures, warm white oak cabinetry, and soft greige grout, suiting transitional, organic modern, and classic Mediterranean design aesthetics. Its understated veining also reads well alongside polished chrome hardware and cool-toned interiors for a cleaner, more minimal look.

The 12×24 format creates a strong horizontal or vertical rhythm when laid in a straight stack or offset brick pattern, making spaces feel taller or wider depending on orientation — ideal for spa-inspired master bathrooms, large shower surrounds, and open-plan kitchen floors. The honed finish adds a tactile warmth that polished marble cannot achieve, making underfoot comfort and slip resistance particularly well-suited for flooring applications.

Popular design combinations: Marmara 12×24 honed field tile paired with a Thassos white marble penny-round mosaic floor insert and brushed gold fixtures for a refined spa bathroom.

Premium Natural Stone

Secure Packaging

Marmara marble is one of the world's most storied natural stones, quarried from the islands of the Sea of Marmara in Turkey and used in architecture and sculpture for over two thousand years. This 12×24 honed tile showcases the stone's characteristic warm white ground with soft, flowing grey veining — a timeless look that works across a wide range of interior styles.

The honed finish produces a smooth, low-sheen matte surface that is more forgiving than polished marble, concealing minor scratches and watermarks while offering improved slip resistance for floor use. Laid in a staggered brick or straight-set pattern, these large-format tiles create a seamless, luxurious surface with fewer grout lines, letting the natural beauty of the stone take center stage.

Marmara honed tile is an excellent choice for master bathroom floors and walls, shower surrounds, kitchen floors, and feature walls in living areas. Because this is a clearance or specialty item, ordering a sample first is strongly recommended to confirm color and finish satisfaction before committing to a full order.

Free Shipping: This product ships at standard freight rates calculated at checkout based on your location and order size.

Processing & Delivery: Orders are processed within 2–3 business days. Large orders ship via LTL freight — curbside delivery only. An adult must be present to sign for delivery. Estimated transit: 2–10 business days after shipment.

30-Day Returns: Uninstalled tile may be returned within 30 days of delivery. Inspect all tile carefully before installation — installed tile cannot be returned or exchanged. Samples are final sale.

Exclusions: Free shipping does not apply to Hawaii, Alaska, U.S. territories, or international addresses. Additional charges may apply for remote delivery areas.

Sealing: Marmara marble is a relatively dense white stone but still requires sealing before installation and after grouting. Apply a premium penetrating stone sealer and reseal every 12 months in bathrooms and kitchens, or every 6 months in high-moisture shower applications. White and warm-white marbles are especially susceptible to staining from oils, soap, and pigmented liquids, so prompt sealing is essential.

Cleaning: Clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth or mop. Avoid vinegar, citrus-based cleaners, bleach, or any acidic or alkaline products, which will etch and dull the honed surface permanently. Although honed marble is more forgiving than polished, it can still absorb spills quickly — wipe up liquids immediately to prevent staining.

Installation: Use white polymer-modified thinset mortar to avoid any grey bleed-through on this pale stone. For 12×24 tiles, back-butter each tile in addition to combing the substrate to ensure full coverage and prevent lippage. A 1/8" to 3/16" grout joint is recommended; use an unsanded or fine-sanded grout in a warm white or light grey tone. Ensure the substrate is flat to within 1/8" over 10 feet before installation.

Important: Inspect all tile before installation. Variations in color, veining, and texture between pieces are natural characteristics of genuine stone — not defects. Order 10% overage for cuts, waste, and future repairs. Tile & Mosaic Depot specialists are available M–F 8:30AM–5PM PST at 855-797-8453.

Why Order a Sample
A screen can't show you how Calacatta veining reads under your kitchen lights or how a porcelain finish sits next to your cabinet color. A sample can. It's the single best way to buy stone or porcelain tile with confidence — and the cheapest mistake you'll ever avoid.

How It Works
Samples are $7.99 each. Samples ship free and leave our warehouse within 1–3 business days. Sizes vary by material and availability — typically 3"×3" up to 8"×8" — and every sample is cut from the same material stocked for full orders.

What a Sample Shows
Color, texture, finish, and overall character. Because natural stone varies piece to piece, one sample represents the material but can't show the full range of a lot. Porcelain samples are highly representative of the production run. Want to see the current lot before you commit? Ask us — we'll send photos.

Good to Know

Samples are final sale — non-returnable and non-refundable.
We recommend sampling before every full order, especially for natural stone.

Our stone and tile specialists will help you narrow it down. Call (855) 797-8453 or email sales@tileandmosaicdepot.com, Monday–Friday, 8:30 AM–5 PM PT.

How Your Order Ships
In-stock orders leave our warehouse within 2–3 business days. Stone, porcelain, and mosaic ship on a pallet via scheduled LTL freight and arrive 2–10 business days after dispatch, depending on destination. You'll get tracking and the carrier's name by email the day it ships.

Freight Delivery — What to Expect

The carrier calls you first. Every freight delivery is by appointment. Expect a call or text to set a window before the truck is dispatched.
Curbside delivery. The driver unloads to the curb or driveway. Freight does not include carrying material indoors or into a garage — plan for a helper or a hand truck.
Someone 18+ must sign. Inspect the pallet before signing. Note any damage, shortage, or broken shrink-wrap on the delivery receipt — this is what makes a claim valid.
Truck access. The address must be accessible to a full-size freight truck with enough space to unload.

Free Shipping
Free curbside freight on qualifying mosaic and molding orders over $1,999 in the continental U.S. Field tile, porcelain, and other product types ship at freight rates shown at checkout. Not available to Hawaii, Alaska, U.S. territories, or international addresses.

Damage & Shortages
Report within 3 calendar days of delivery with photos of the pallet, packaging, and affected pieces to sales@tileandmosaicdepot.com. Verified claims are covered. Shortages of 1–5 pieces are refunded rather than reshipped — which is why we recommend ordering 10% overage.

30-Day Returns
Uninstalled tile in full, unopened boxes may be returned within 30 days of delivery. Return freight is paid by the customer. Partial boxes, opened boxes, installed material, and samples are final sale.

Questions Before You Order?
Call (855) 797-8453 or email sales@tileandmosaicdepot.com, Monday–Friday 8:30 AM–5 PM PT. If you're unsure about freight access at your address, ask us before checkout — we'll flag anything that could hold up delivery.

Natural Variation
Quarried stone varies in color, veining, shade, movement, and finish from piece to piece and from lot to lot. Screen photos and samples show the range, not the exact tile you'll receive. Variation is the nature of the material and is never grounds for return. Porcelain is far more consistent, but shade and pattern can still shift between production runs — buy your full quantity in one order.

Before You Install

Order 10% overage. Covers cuts, breakage, and spares for future repairs. Reorders may not match in tone or lot.
Inspect every piece before setting. Pull from all boxes, blend, and dry-lay the full area. Installation is acceptance — no claims are honored once tile is set.
Hire a qualified installer. Natural stone and large-format porcelain require experience with the material. Your installer is responsible for substrate, setting materials, and method.

Sealing & Care
Natural stone should be sealed with a penetrating sealer and re-sealed periodically in wet and high-traffic areas. Clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner only — vinegar, bleach, ammonia, and acidic cleaners etch marble, limestone, travertine, and onyx permanently. Porcelain does not require sealing. Outdoor stone weathers and shifts in tone over time; this is expected.

Responsibility
Tile & Mosaic Depot supplies material only. We are not responsible for installation, labor costs, substrate conditions, setting materials, product misuse, or damage from handling, sealing, maintenance, or chemicals. No claims, returns, or replacements are accepted on installed material.

California Proposition 65
Some natural stone and porcelain products contain substances known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. Details at www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
