← The JournalSlab Arrival ·

Cristallo is among the most translucent quartzites in the Antolini collection, and Traslux Classic is its quietest reading — a near-clear white field with minimal veining, as close to clear glass as a natural stone comes. Where the gold- and violet-shot Cristallos declare themselves, Traslux holds back, offering pure translucency as the design gesture.

This is a backlight slab in its purest form. Lit from behind, the near-clear field turns to a soft, even glow with almost no interruption — ideal for a backlit island, a bar front, or a feature panel where the light itself is meant to be the feature. Polished and unlit, it reads as a clean, crystalline white.

From the slab arrival,

Traslux is selected for its unusual translucency. Performance, porosity and sealing requirements vary by the individual stone, quarry and finish, so the slab should be evaluated for its intended use.

This is Lot AN283-1, chapas 1–7, polished at 2cm — a matched run for continuous backlit work. On the floor at our South Sepulveda yard; book a viewing to see it lit.
