Caring for honed marble
Because marble is a calcite stone, acids such as lemon juice, vinegar and some cleaning products can leave dull marks (etching), and spills can stain if left to sit. Seal it after installation, wipe spills promptly and clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner. A honed finish shows etch marks and scratches less than a polished one.
Where it works
Cipollino Rosso Marble suits bathroom vanities, feature walls and fireplace surrounds, and kitchen benchtops for owners who are happy with the soft patina marble develops over time. Pattern and colour change from block to block, so this description and photo apply to Block 1973 specifically.
