Morwad Marble — also known as Morwad White or Milky Coral — is a premium white marble quarried from the village of Morwad in Rajasthan, India. It is one of the most distinctively characterised white stones in the Indian marble range: its base is a clean, high-luster milky white, but what sets it apart is the presence of natural green and grey mineral inclusions that drift through the surface like brushstrokes, giving it a warmth and organic quality that pure white marbles lack. The result is a stone that reads as white at scale but reveals considerable natural depth and complexity up close.
At Stone Harbor, we source Morwad Marble directly from the Rajasthan quarry region and export in tile, slab, and block form to clients across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific. The stone is available in standard and custom dimensions for both residential and commercial applications.
Origin & Composition
Morwad Marble is a metamorphic stone quarried from the village of Morwad in Rajasthan — a quarrying centre well established within India’s broader Kishangarh-Rajsamand marble belt. The stone’s milky white base is produced by a high-purity calcite matrix, while the characteristic green and grey inclusions result from serpentine, chlorite, and other secondary mineral deposits introduced through the stone’s natural vein systems. Its high natural luster and low porosity make it one of the better-performing white marbles from the region for interior applications requiring a sustained polish over time.
