Macchia Vecchia Product Story

Macchia Vecchia comes in Polished for interior walls and floors in living areas and kitchens. Slabs up to 1600 × 3200mm extend it to seamless wall cladding, seamless floors, worktops and islands, vanity tops and basins, tables and furniture, and fireplace and bath surrounds. Every size is rectified for narrow, consistent joints, in a 6mm thickness, and the collection can contribute to BREEAM and LEED assessments. Macchia Vecchia has moderate tonal variation (V3) that reads as natural movement rather than a printed surface.

Macchia Vecchia Graphical Faces

Macchia Vecchia is supplied with a number of distinct graphical faces. Below are examples of 4 of these graphical faces when supplied in 3200 x 1600 mm formats. Click on any swatch for a closer look.

Specifying Macchia Vecchia

What is the largest format of Macchia Vecchia?

The largest format is 1600 × 3200mm (5.12 m² per piece), available in Polished. As a full slab it allows seamless wall and floor surfaces with minimal joints, and can be fabricated into worktops, vanity tops and basins, and furniture.

Which finish of Macchia Vecchia should I specify for each area?

Based on each finish's slip rating, thickness and format:

  • Polished (6mm) — interior floors in living areas, hallways and kitchens; interior walls; large-format surfaces: seamless walls, seamless floors, worktops and islands, vanity tops and basins, tables and furniture, fireplace and bath surrounds.

What thicknesses are available, and what are they for?

  • 6mm (Polished) — lightweight wall and floor surfaces, and cladding of worktops and furniture.

Is Macchia Vecchia rectified?

Yes. Every size is rectified: the edges are cut to precise dimensions after firing, allowing narrow, consistent joints. Confirm minimum joint widths for the format with the installer and adhesive manufacturer.

How much shade variation should I allow for?

Macchia Vecchia is rated V3 (moderate variation). Variation between pieces is part of the design, so dry-lay from several boxes and agree the blend with the client before fixing. For large or phased projects, order the full quantity from a single production batch.

What does Macchia Vecchia weigh?

Check substrate and fixing requirements for wall cladding, upper floors and furniture. By thickness:

  • 6mm — 15.2 kg/m²

What sustainability credentials does Macchia Vecchia have?

Macchia Vecchia can contribute to BREEAM and LEED building assessments and meets EU Ecolabel, GREENGUARD and NSF requirements. Supporting documentation is available on request for project submissions.

Can I order samples?
