How to Choose High-End Marble: A Quick Guide

1. Match Marble to the Room
  • High-Traffic Areas (Tables):Choose durable, dense marbles with honed finishes (e.g., Grand Antique Marble) to resist scratches.
  • Bathrooms (Basins, Tubs):Opt for water-resistant, light-colored stones (e.g., Calacatta Viola) for a spa-like feel. Professionally sealed marble will not leak.
  • Focal Points (Fireplaces):Use bold, veined marbles (e.g., Arabescato) to create a visual centerpiece.

2. Pick Your Marble Type
  • Light Marbles (Carrara, Statuario):Timeless and bright, ideal for modern spaces.
  • Dark Marbles (Negro Marquina):Luxurious and dramatic, perfect for accents.
  • Veined Marbles (Calacatta Viola):Make a unique style statement with natural patterns.

3.Check Craftsmanship Quality

Quality cutting and polishing ensure longevity and beauty. Look for:

  • Precise, seamless edges.
  • Smooth, well-executed finishes (polished for gloss, honed for matte).
  • Expert sealing for stain resistance.

4.Plan for Maintenance
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners.
  • Reseal periodically as recommended.
  • Avoid acidic substances to prevent etching.
