I am working on a home for an investor, and the budget is pretty tight.

The front entry has marble tile, and one of them needs to be replaced. I have a pretty good source for marble tiles, and I am fully aware that the new tile will be different. The difference in tile color,grain, etc. is ok, but not the cracked tile. Long story, but the tile is already miss-matched..looks like two different lots, so why not make it three... So here is the question: Does anybody know the common name for the marble in the photos? If I have a name, the search will be much easier. Thanks!
Close....At least better than the cracked one...

Taking the broken pieces to the supplier will help. This site, Marble Floor Tiles, has 2135 pics of floor tiles to help you select yours, http://www.fotosearch.com/photos-images/marble-floor-tiles.html

Thanks Guys...I found out the common name, it's "Wood-Grain Stone"...I sent a guy to the local tile and marble super wharehouse, and he was able to find a pretty good match, or at least the color will work for what we are needing to accomplish. We are on a crazy tight time schedule with this house, so "close" is what we needed... I'll add a photo of the repair once I get it onto my computer...
