From Gebel El Galala to the World's Finest Projects
A Quarry at 1,000 Meters Elevation
Gebel El Galala sits at 1,000 m+ above the Gulf of Suez in eastern Egypt. Millions of years of immense geological pressure gave the stone its exceptional density and hardness.
The Unique Golden-Cream Color
The crystallized calcite composition with iron oxides gives Galala its golden-cream color unavailable in any other marble. Brown and golden veins are natural drawings from mineral infiltration.
Heritage of Royal Usage
Galala marble is used in Four Seasons, Hilton, and Sheraton hotels across the Middle East, as well as in Saudi and UAE royal palaces and mosques.
