Frosted White is quarried from a bedrock quarry in Namibia. A special quality of this marble is the transparent portions of the slab that, when back lit, will allow light to pass through, illuminating the stone. Even though this marble shares some of the same qualities as an onyx, it is very structurally sound and does not require a mesh backing. It is possible to have small deposits of nickel or copper in some Frosted White slabs. Due to the qualities of the stone, the slabs are book-matched, in which slab one and slab two will be cut and polished to create a mirror image of each other. These are then kept in sequence, which allows for a consistent flow in pattern. As a natural stone product, it is recommended that this be sealed to extend its longevity.
