Giallo Antico is quarried from a pit quarry near Bari, Italy. This stone is quarried in layers like a limestone and will vary in tone depending on the depth each block is extracted from. It is not unusual for this particular marble to have red and dark brown characteristics throughout. Due to its qualities, 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. It is a common characteristic for this stone to have voids in the raw material. Before it reaches the polishing stages, these voids are filled with a polyester resin. Depending on how deep the void is, the resin may shrink as it dries, which will leave the surface of the filled area slightly lower than the rest. This does not affect the durability, maintenance or beauty of the stone. Arizona Tile offers Giallo Antico tiles in both the polished and brushed finishes to help accentuate any design.

This marble is also known as Amerelo Capri, Amerelo Antico or Amerelo Antique.
