What is the Difference Between Carrara Venato Natural Stone & Carrara Bianco Natural Stone? The following tries to outline the subtle differences between Carrara Venato and Carrara Bianco, the main difference between the two collections are:
1. Bianco Carrara & Venato are from different quarries
2. Carrara Bianco focuses a slightly heavier and pronounced veining of the stone
3. Carrara Venato has a larger offering of honed products
4. Both have slight differences in some of the products, for example 3x8" subway tile in Bianco and 3x6" subway tile in Venato
Why do we offer two collections of Carrara? It demonstrates our commitment to excellence, Carrara is by far one of the most beautiful and understated marble products in the entire world. It is an absolute timeless classic. It has distinct veining and shade differences from different quarries and even different parts of the same quarry. It is this difference we want to capture, minimize shade variation, put into collections and offer to our customers.
Creating distinct brand product collections allow Builders Depot Direct to limit the variation in shade and veining while still offering considerable choice that cannot be matched by any other store or online retailer. Purchasing your entire Carrara project from one supplier is highly recommended as this keeps shade variation to a minimum.
