Home | Materials | Marble

Marble is a classic natural stone, most known for its white color and grey veining. Marble comes in wide range of colors, patterns, and finishes making it a popular choice for kitchen countertops, bathroom vanities, backsplashes, and fireplace surrounds.

Marble is cool to the touch, and while mostly durable and heat resistant, its mineral composition makes it very susceptible to staining and etching from acidic liquids even when sealed.  Marble is a popular choice for those seeking classic and elegant design options.
