Description
Rich, romantic, and unmistakably luxurious, the Garnet Elara Checkerboard Marble Tile reimagines the timeless checkerboard pattern through the dramatic beauty of natural burgundy marble. Crafted from a sophisticated combination of Garnet Meadow Marble and classic Carrara Marble, Elara™ pairs deep wine, oxblood, and garnet-red stone with luminous white marble to create an elevated two-tone design inspired by grand European interiors.
The natural movement of Garnet Meadow with its saturated burgundy coloration, dramatic mineral variation, and expressive white veining—creates a striking contrast against Carrara Marble's soft white background and delicate gray veining. Together, the two stones transform the traditional checkerboard into a richly layered architectural statement with warmth, depth, and unmistakable character.
Available in 4" x 4", 6" x 6", and 8" x 8", Garnet Elara allows designers to tailor the scale of the checkerboard to the architecture of the room, from intimate jewel-box powder rooms and vestibules to expansive kitchens, bathrooms, foyers, and statement floors.
The Elara Checkerboard Collection
The Elara collection is available in three signature Maison Lang marble colorways, each beautifully paired with Carrara Marble:
-
Garnet Elara — deep burgundy Garnet Meadow Marble + Carrara Marble
-
Viridian Elara — rich emerald green Viridian Meadow Marble + Carrara Marble
-
Obsidian Elara — dramatic Obsidian Black Marble + Carrara Marble
Each combination creates a distinctly different atmosphere while maintaining the collection's signature checkerboard geometry.
Why You'll Love Garnet Elara
Crafted entirely from genuine natural marble, Garnet Elara celebrates the individual variation and character inherent in natural stone. No two pieces are exactly alike. Variations in burgundy coloration, veining, mineral movement, and tonal depth become an intentional part of the finished composition, ensuring every installation has a bespoke, collected quality.
The checkerboard format is particularly striking when installed on the diagonal, transforming the squares into an elegant diamond composition reminiscent of historic European estates, Parisian apartments, and richly appointed boutique hotels. Garnet Elara™ can also be installed in a traditional straight-set checkerboard configuration for a more structured architectural appearance.
Designed for Statement Interiors
Garnet Elara Checkerboard Marble Tile is an exceptional choice for luxury residential and boutique commercial interiors, including kitchen floors, bathroom floors, powder rooms, foyers, entryways, dressing rooms, mudrooms, fireplace surrounds, feature walls, wet bars, hospitality spaces, and other statement installations.
Its rich burgundy-and-white palette pairs beautifully with warm brass and unlacquered brass fixtures, antique bronze, polished nickel, dark walnut, mahogany, creamy cabinetry, and other richly layered natural materials. For an especially dramatic interior, pair Garnet Elara™ with deep wood cabinetry, aged brass accents, warm ivory walls, and sculptural lighting for an atmosphere that feels sophisticated, collected, and timeless.
Available Sizes
4" x 4" • 6" x 6" • 8" x 8"
Because Elara combines two contrasting natural marbles, the selected size can dramatically influence the finished installation. The smaller 4" x 4" format creates a more intricate visual rhythm, while the 6" x 6" provides a beautifully balanced classic scale. The larger 8" x 8" format creates a bold architectural checkerboard ideal for expansive floors and dramatic statement spaces.
