Marble medallions

A marble medallion is the focal point of a floor: a waterjet-cut centrepiece, usually circular or multi-sided, that anchors the room. We make custom marble medallions from 800mm to over 6 metres, drawn from your design or adapted from our library, so the figure is scaled to the space it will occupy — beneath the chandelier, at the foot of a stair, or at the threshold of a hall.

A medallion is the moment a room announces itself. We plot radial figures from a single centre so the pattern closes perfectly, and split anything over 2.4 metres into numbered segments with joints hidden along pattern lines — so the finished floor reads as one piece rather than a set of panels.

Because every medallion is cut to ±0.1mm on a multi-axis waterjet directly from the approved CAD file, the pieces assemble tightly and the pattern never drifts. Curves, fine joints and inset details that a saw cannot hold are exactly what the waterjet does best — from a single inlaid star to a floral bouquet with hundreds of pieces.

Most of our medallion work starts from a client's own drawing. A CAD file, a sketch, a mood board or a photograph of an existing floor is redrawn at full size, stones are selected against it vein by vein, and a photographic material study goes back for approval before anything is cut. Two rounds of cut-plan revision are included.

Every medallion is dry-assembled on the factory floor, photographed for your approval and crated with a setting plan. What you approve is what arrives, to a tenth of a millimetre — the centrepiece is also the part of the floor that is seen from every angle, so it is the part we photograph most carefully.

Marble medallions suit foyers, reception rooms, hotel lobbies and stair halls. Send a drawing or reference and we will return a cut plan, a material study and an itemised quote within three working days.
