ZC534 terrazzo, but with larger chips.

A subtle change in scale adds more colour, more character and more of a statement.

Used across the worktops and splashback, the result is a bright and inviting kitchen.

A very different batch of Breccia Capraia.

Reminiscent of an alpine landscape, these marble slabs have a largely greyscale palette with hints of gold running through.

Where do we even begin with this kitchen?

• Do we start with the worktop-to-ceiling splashback, where bookmatching and vein-matching combine to form a dramatic feature wall?

• Or the mitred downstand, with hob controls integrated into the stone?

• What about the vast kitchen island, also bookmatched and comprised of the best part of two full slabs?

• Not to mention the double bullnose edge detailing.

The list goes on, but the real story is the tremendous amount of teamwork involved.

The client hand-selecting their stone, their continued collaboration throughout, the precise laser templating, the meticulous layout planning, the fabrication process and the eight-strong installation team.

Everyone played a part in delivering the Calacatta Firenze surfaces you now see alongside the beautiful cabinetry and joinery by @finestjoinery

12 months, 120+ colours

We’ve worked out that in 2025, we fabricated more than 120 different stone colours - across marble, granite, quartz, quartzite, terrazzo, porcelain and more!

From kitchen worktops and bathrooms to fireplaces and bespoke details, our projects have ranged from entire homes to the smallest of windowsills.

Here’s just a snapshot.

If you’re looking for something beyond the ordinary, we’d love to welcome you in the New Year.

Have you ever seen marble like this?
 
Our latest delivery of natural marbles showcases just how diverse the material can be.
 
• Diaspri (Leather, 20mm)
We’ve never seen anything quite like this… have you?

• Arabescato Cremoso (Honed, 20mm)
Arabescato with veins that drape over the slabs like fabric.

• Ceppo Bruno (Honed, 20mm)
Not to be mistaken for a marinace - full of character, this stone is in fact a marble.

• Breccia Capraia (Honed, 20mm)
A very different batch reminiscent of an alpine landscape.

• Ceppo Sicilia (Honed, 20mm)
Sage greens, pinks and earthy tones that echo ancient Rome.

• Arabescato Corchia (Honed, 20mm)
A marble that needs no introduction.

• Malva Leather (Leather, 20mm)
Deep burgundies and warm golds, enhanced by a textured leather finish.

• Bruno Argento (Honed, 20mm)
A Turkish delight, with veins flowing like rivers.

• Arabescato Apuano (Honed, 20mm)
Another classic marble from Carrara, ideal for clients seeking timeless elegance.

• Bianco Namibia (Honed, 20mm)
An ethereal, off-white marble with a calming presence. 

• Ceppo Cappuccino (Honed, 20mm)
Warm coffee tones give this ceppo variation its name.
 
No doubt the photos impress – but these stones are best experienced in person, in full-size slabs.
 
Come and explore!

Billions of years of beauty.

Our latest delivery includes quartzites and dolomites, unique stones often from Brazil, known for their rich colour and geological character.

• Aquarello (Honed, 20mm)
Meaning “watercolour”, with delicate shades and tones reminiscent of that style of painting.

• Tiffany (Polished, 20mm)
Our latest batch of a much-loved stone. Expect the same stunning details, with a gentler background.

• Calacatta Torino (Honed, 20mm)
This Australian material brings a classic marble aesthetic, with the added durability of dolomite.

• Zucca (Leather, 20mm)
A returning favourite from the ‘marinace’ family, this batch has a much more plum-purple palette.

• Calacatta Firenze (Honed, 20mm)
Same as before, but different.

All of our materials will make it onto our page… but why rely on images?

Come and experience the slabs in their entirety.

Granite worktops proudly shared by happy customers.

Kinawa Bianco is a long-standing favourite for its chameleon-like ability to adapt to different colour schemes.

Offering both natural beauty and impressive durability, it’s no wonder it continues to be such a popular choice for kitchens.

Here it features in a tactile satin finish, making the worktops even more special.

When choosing a material, visiting our stone yard is a NECESSITY! We stock the best selection of natural granite, marble, limestone, slate and engineered quartz slabs which are ALL available to view. At Bristol Marble and Granite, we believe the only way to choose the right material for your project, is to select it from full size slabs and not from a small sample; this way you can fully appreciate the beauty of your slab before it arrives in your home and giving you the full picture – which is something that a sample simply cannot do. Our visitors are always impressed and agree that seeing our slabs or pieces really is the only way to choose the material – whether it be for kitchen work surfaces or a window sill we’re here to help.

We welcome public and trade customer visits six days a week for tours of our extensive stone yard and high tech onsite workshop, with our knowledgeable and friendly staff.
