One thing, done properly
Raw blocks from Anatolia to European processors. We do not process stone and we do not sell finished product: what we add is the selection, and that is what to judge us on.

Who we are
What we do
We source raw marble, travertine and onyx blocks from quarries across Türkiye and sell them to European processors. A buyer tells us the material, the format and the quality he needs. We find it — not only in the quarries that exhibit at fairs — go to the block, and select it ourselves.
The people
There are four of us, between Türkiye and the Veneto. The people you deal with are the people who go to the quarry.

The name
Cnidia comes from Cnidus — Knidos — the Greek city at the tip of the Datça peninsula, in Muğla province. Marmi is Italian. The name says the whole business: Anatolian stone, European trade.
Past the fair circuit
The quarries that exhibit at Verona are a part of the Turkish basin, not all of it. What you are looking for is often in a quarry with no stand — and that is where someone has to go.
The risk sits with us
Photographs and video of the block before loading, numbered against the packing list. If what lands does not match, we take it up with the quarry — you do not.
Come and see
We organise quarry visits: fly into İzmir, three quarries in two days, you select on site.
