Investing in marble is an investment for life– one that is easier to care for than you may think. Your marble features can be showcase to emphasis a number of different features depending on the finishing of the stone.
A polished finish is glossy and reflective; and emphasizes the color and markings of the stone. It’s best suited for counter tops and other accent pieces. A honed finish is satin smooth, and reflects relatively little light. Customers generally prefer the honed finish for floors and areas with heavy foot traffic that would wear down a polished finish. It can also be applied to furniture tops. A flamed finish is rough, textured and often used on granite floor tiles.
