Our antiqued black and white checkerboard flooring collection is a heritage reproduction inspired by centuries-old European stone floors found in monasteries, châteaux, villas, and historic townhouses. Each marble tile is intentionally aged using traditional European methods to achieve the softened edges, gentle surface undulation, and layered patina characteristic of authentic historic interiors.
Produced by skilled European artisans, these floors develop a depth of character that cannot be replicated by machine-made tile. Subtle tonal movement, natural veining, and timeworn texture combine to create checkerboard marble floors that feel precious, heirloom in quality, and visually established the moment they are installed.
Unlike modern high-gloss black and white marble, our antiqued checkerboard floors are designed to evoke the quiet elegance of centuries-old stone. The surface finish absorbs and diffuses light rather than reflecting it sharply, allowing interiors to feel warm, architectural, and grounded rather than stark or contemporary.
This collection is ideal for historic renovations, European-inspired new builds, and luxury interiors seeking authenticity rather than imitation. When installed, these floors immediately transform spaces into rooms that feel rooted in history—imbuing kitchens, entries, halls, and living spaces with Old World presence, permanence, and architectural soul.
Our antiqued black and white checkerboard marble pairs beautifully with reclaimed French oak flooring, antique French limestone, Belgian bluestone, and reclaimed French terra cotta tiles, allowing designers and homeowners to build layered, cohesive interiors that feel collected over time rather than newly assembled.
Each order is curated with careful attention to color balance, tonal harmony, and stone variation to ensure a refined and timeless result worthy of fine homes and architectural projects.
Recommended Sealer after Installation: Akemi Stain Repellent Nano Effect for French Limestone and Belgian Bluestone Flooring
Cleaning and Maintenance: Vacuum, then clean with Black Soap (Savon Noir) to disinfect, maintain, protect and enhance patina.
