Dungri White
Marble

Dungri White Marble is quarried in Dungri, part of the historic Makrana marble belt of Nagaur district, Rajasthan. The Makrana belt has supplied India with white marble for over a thousand years and is the source material behind some of the country's most iconic monumental architecture. Dungri's deposits formed when ancient limestone underwent intense regional metamorphism, recrystallising into a dense, fine-grained marble distinct from the softer whites of central Rajasthan.

Our facility maintains direct relationships with quarry operators across the Dungri area, allowing us to control block selection and consistency for project-scale specifications. The relationship-based sourcing model is essential for this stone — Makrana-belt marble varies in vein character block by block, and matched specification across multi-container exports requires careful selection at the quarry stage rather than catalogue ordering.

Dungri White is a dense, fine-grained metamorphic marble dominated by recrystallised calcite with trace dolomite contributing to its hardness. The subtle grey movement seen across slabs comes from minor concentrations of carbonaceous and clay-derived material stretched along metamorphic foliation planes. The tight crystalline structure gives Dungri White excellent dimensional stability and the kind of polish-holding capacity that has historically made Makrana-belt marbles a preferred specification for monumental projects. Origin and specifications verified by Gemarix.

Dungri White slabs read as a bright, slightly cool white with restrained grey movement — never busy, always architectural. Some blocks present near-uniform white fields suited to minimalist applications; others carry subtle directional grey wisps that introduce gentle visual rhythm. The character is sculptural and refined, sitting between the cleaner whites of central Rajasthan and the brighter whites of Gujarat.

The marble pairs effectively with both warm and cool design palettes. Against oak, brass, and walnut, it provides a refined cool counterpoint; against blackened steel and dark joinery, it delivers crisp contrast. Polished finishes deepen subtle grey detail and produce a high-reflectivity surface; honed finishes pull the surface towards a calm, museum-grade matte ideal for high-traffic flooring.

Dungri White Marble is most commonly specified for premium residential flooring, hotel and hospitality interiors, monumental cladding, and luxury bathroom installations where a hard, bright white is the design intent. Its density and polish-holding capacity make it well-suited to high-traffic areas where softer marbles would show wear, and its visual clarity holds across large unbroken installations.

Gangsaw slabs (280 × 180 cm) suit large-format flooring and full-height cladding; cutter slabs (180 × 60 cm) are typical for vanity tops, kitchen surrounds, and stair treads. Our Rajasthan facility cuts custom tile sizes and book-matched pairs for feature applications, finishing to polished, honed, or leathered surface as required.

Polished finish maximises the marble's brightness and produces a high-reflectivity surface ideal for vertical cladding and statuary applications — the most frequently specified finish. Honed finish produces a soft museum-grade matte well-suited to residential floors and contemporary bathroom installations. Leathered finish introduces gentle surface texture for vanity tops and feature walls. Brushed finish suits heritage and traditional applications.

This stone is supplied in two production formats. Gangsaw slabs are large-format slabs for premium architectural projects requiring continuous surfaces. Cutter slabs are smaller-format slabs optimised for residential installations and tile production.

Gangsaw Slabs

260–300 cm × 160–180 cm × 2 / 3 cm

Cutter Slabs

180–220 cm × 60–90 cm × 2 / 3 cm

Custom tile sizes available: 60×60 cm, 60×90 cm, 90×90 cm. Cut to specification at our Rajasthan facility.

Apply a penetrating stone sealer at installation; reseal annually in kitchens and bathrooms. Clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner and soft cloth — never acidic cleaners or abrasive pads, which etch calcite and dull polished finishes. Blot spills promptly, particularly wine, coffee, oil, and citrus. Dungri's higher density gives slightly improved stain resistance compared to softer marbles, but sealing remains essential.
