Description
Fior di Pesco Marble Block 1923, honed finish. Blue-grey base with a pinkish tint, covered in long white and pale pink veins that run mostly vertically and wander slightly. Many fine grey cracks fill the spaces between, giving a dense, scratchy look. Marble is a natural stone made mostly of calcite. It is in stock in Sydney.

Where it works
Fior di Pesco 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 1923 specifically.
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.
