Tiger Skin Marble: A Bold Expression of Nature’s Art

Tiger Skin Marble, one of Turkey’s most striking natural stones, is recognized worldwide for its dark base highlighted by dynamic gray and white speckles. It is known as Tiger Skin marble in international markets and as Afyon Tiger Gray Marble locally, named after the Afyon region where it is quarried. Its unique patterns resemble the natural elegance of a tiger’s coat, giving it a distinctive and powerful character.
