Drag the slab to turn it, or use the arrow keys. Switching finish re-renders the surface — polished throws a hard specular, the abraded finishes open the surface up and knock the colour back.
Multicolour marble
Breccia Sinai
Also sold as Sinai Breccia
Cream and rust fragments locked in a pale matrix.
A Sinai breccia: broken cream and rust-coloured fragments re-cemented into a pale ground. Cooler and more angular than the Minya breccia, and one of the few Egyptian stones that reads as genuinely multicoloured at a distance.

Photographs
Breccia Sinai in the yard
Photographs of our own blocks, slabs and finished work. Slab photography shows one slab — the block it came from is what you are quoted against.
Laid out
Breccia Sinai across a floor
A photograph shows one slab on a stand. This shows the stone tile after tile — where the pattern repeats, how far the tone drifts across a batch, and what the joint does to it. Every tile here is cut from a different part of the surface, the way material comes out of a real crate.
Indicative layout. Tone drift is deliberate — no two tiles from one batch match exactly, and a laid floor should never look like one photograph repeated.
In the room
Breccia Sinai against your wall colour
Nobody buys stone on a white background. Put Breccia Sinai on the floor, up the wall or across a worktop, set the colour it will actually sit against, and change the light — the same three questions every client asks on a site visit, answered before the sample ships.
A scene, not a render of your project: proportions are indicative and colour on a screen is never the colour in a room. Send us the drawings and we will lay the real slab sizes out against your setting-out.
Surface
Breccia Sinai, close up
The slab above turns; this is the same stone at the size it sits in your hand. Change the finish and it re-cuts.
Roughly a 130 mm span of Breccia Sinai, polished. A rendered preview, not a photograph of stock — ask for a physical sample before you specify.
