The stone
Close up and on the slab.
Review the diagonal vein direction over the complete composition. Set seams and edge returns on the drawing; compare honed and polished samples under the lighting planned for the room.

Working with marble.

Softer than it looks
Marble is softer than granite or quartzite and reacts with acids: lemon, wine and some cleaners can dull a polished surface. It is at its best in bathrooms, furniture, fireplaces and walls.

Finish for the use
Polished brings out the colour; honed hides wear and etching better. On a kitchen top or a bar, choose honed and seal it.

Read the whole slab
Veining changes across a slab and from slab to slab. We send photographs of the actual slabs, and you choose where the strongest movement falls before cutting.
