About Maximum

Maximum, also known as Calacatta Maximum, is a sophisticated dolomite quarried from the rich geological formations of Brazil. This natural stone is defined by its luminous white to soft gray background, dramatically interlaced with a complex network of bold charcoal veins and delicate silvery-gray shades.

While often compared to high-end Italian marble, Maximum offers superior durability and a higher resistance to scratching and etching, rating between 3.5 and 4 on the Mohs scale. Interestingly, many of these Brazilian dolomites formed millions of years ago in ancient tropical seas, such as the extinct Capiru Sea, where intense pressure and microbial activity transformed limestone into this exceptionally dense and resilient metamorphic rock.
