Latticinio Core

A latticinio core is a bundle of fine white or coloured threads twisted into a lattice down the centre of the marble, wrapped in outer bands of clear glass.

What to look for

  • Count the outer bands and note whether they are even or crowded.
  • Yellow, orange and blue lattice are less common than plain white.
  • Look through the clear glass for haze, which knocks the eye appeal down.
