About this stone
A warm cream-beige crossed by wavy, zigzag lines in honey and gold, with small pale fossil rings scattered through it. The lines run roughly in one direction, so it looks orderly on a floor and elegant on a staircase. It has long been used in classic Italian interiors and fits equally well with modern cream kitchens.
It is a hard, compact marble that takes a good polish, and works on floors, stairs, wall cladding, window sills, vanities and tables. Those zigzag lines are natural seams, and on some pieces they are slightly open and filled at the factory. Check them on the slab, and remember that lemon and vinegar will dull a polished countertop.
Care
Seal after installation and clean with pH-neutral soap. Avoid vinegar, lemon and bleach on polished surfaces.
