Mylasa Silver (often marketed as Mugla Silver or Silver White) is a premium Turkish marble quarried in the Muğla region. It is celebrated for its ethereal, “smoky” aesthetic and its high structural density, making it a favorite for both high-traffic commercial spaces and luxury residential projects.
Visual & Physical Characteristics
-
Appearance: Features a sophisticated light grey to silver-white background accented by fluid, smoky waves and soft grey veining. It offers a cooler, more contemporary aesthetic compared to classic beiges.
-
Texture & Grain: Known for a fine, crystalline structure that allows for an exceptionally high-gloss polish, reflecting light in a way that creates a sense of depth and “liquid” movement.
-
Structural Strength: It is a notably hard marble with a density of approximately 2.71 g/cm³. This hardness allows it to be cut into ultra-thin slabs (down to 1.2 cm) without losing integrity—ideal for your advanced cladding and furniture projects.
Technical Specifications
| Property | Value (Approx.) |
| Water Absorption | 0.1% – 0.2% |
| Compressive Strength | 60–70 MPa |
| Hardness (Mohs) | 3.0 – 3.5 |
| Porosity | ~0.4% |
Key Applications
-
High-Traffic Flooring: Because of its low water absorption and high resistance to abrasion, it is frequently specified for hotel lobbies, shopping centers, and airports.
-
Bookmatched Feature Walls: The “smoky” veins are perfect for mirrored patterns, creating a dramatic, art-like effect in modern living rooms or corporate boardrooms.
-
Luxury Furniture: Given your work with the Stolce brand, Mylasa Silver is an excellent choice for table tops and inlays, pairing beautifully with both brushed steel and dark wood finishes.
Strategic Export Context
As you focus on the US and UAE markets, Mylasa Silver is a highly competitive alternative to Italian greys. Its ability to withstand diverse climates—from the humidity of Florida to the dry heat of Dubai—makes it a versatile “safe bet” for large-scale international exports. Since it is quarried near your base in Muğla, it offers a significant logistical advantage for Yükselen Marbles in terms of quality control and supply chain efficiency.
