Carrara CD Marble Base Art Deco Skirting Board. This 130mm high skirting is carved from "Grade CD" Italian Carrara marble, known for its iconic cool-grey background and distinct charcoal veining. The Art Deco tiered profile provides a geometric elegance that bridges the gap between classic heritage and modern luxury.
Why "Carrara CD" Grade?
Carrara CD is the architect's choice for projects requiring a more pronounced "stone" character. Compared to the lighter Bianco Carrara, the CD grade offers deeper grey tones and more dramatic veining, making it a perfect match for high-traffic hallways and bathrooms where you want the natural material to truly stand out.

The Luxury Alternative to Timber
While standard timber or MDF skirting boards rot and swell in humid environments, our Carrara CD Marble skirting is 100% waterproof and maintenance-free. It is the ideal solution for protecting walls in wet rooms, steam rooms, and luxury bathrooms.
Coordinated Design Pairings:
- The Monochrome Suite: Frame our dark Port Laurent Black Marble with this light-grey skirting for a high-contrast Deco look.
- Traditional Bathrooms: Pair with our Violetta Marble collection for an opulent, tiered mineral aesthetic.
- Modern "Cool" Interiors: Complement the green minerals in our Calacatta Verde tiles with the cool-grey base of Carrara CD.
Installation Note
For a flawless finish, we recommend using a 45-degree mitre cut on a wet saw for all internal and external corners. This ensures the Art Deco tiered lines align perfectly. Always seal with an impregnating sealer to protect the marble from floor cleaning agents.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Carrara C and Carrara CD?
Carrara C is typically whiter with less veining. Carrara CD features a slightly more grey background and more frequent charcoal veining, which many designers prefer for its authentic "natural stone" appearance.
Is this skirting suitable for commercial use?
Yes. Because it is solid natural stone, it is extremely durable and can withstand the heavy cleaning and foot traffic common in luxury hotel lobbies and restaurants.
