What you should know

There are many variations of marble based on the minerals which give it color and veining. Stone quarried from different parts of the world have a unique appearance. Fine-grained marble tends to be more consistent in color. Heavier grains produce more variation in color.


Marble surfaces are available in:

  • Honed or Matte: The marble is sanded to be smooth, and it has almost a soft feel.
  • Polished: The surface is grinded and buffed to produce a rich luster that sparkles.
  • Leather: This finish is preferred on darker marble.

Pros

  • Unsurpassed unique beauty and elegance
  • Offers outstanding durability when properly cared for
  • Excellent resistance to heat
  • Develops a light patina with time that gives it an aged, antique look (some might find this a “con”)

Cons

  • Marble is porous and will stain unless properly sealed and conscientiously cleaned
  • Scratches more easily than granite, especially in high-gloss finishes
  • Can be chipped or cracked by heavy items
  • Will etch if exposed to acidic materials such as vinegar
  • More rare and expensive than most countertops

Tips

  • Put dirty dishes and glasses into the sink or dishwasher rather than on the countertops
  • Wipe food and beverages off the countertops immediately
  • Use a cleaner formulated for marble
  • Use a cutting board rather than cutting on marble
  • If a stain develops, use a stain remover designed for use on marble
