Olho DE Sapo is a natural limestone from Portugal, characterised by a warm brown tone over a brownish‑white base. The stone displays a coarse, calciclastic texture with abundant bioclastic fragments, giving it a slightly speckled appearance that adds depth to interior and exterior applications. Its uniform colour and subtle grain make it suitable for polished, honed or brushed finishes, ideal for flooring, wall cladding, countertops and landscape features. Marmi di Carrara supplies Olho DE Sapo in robust blocks and 2‑3 cm thick slabs, offering cut‑to‑size options and real‑time photos of actual slabs before purchase, ensuring confidence and precision for architects and designers.
