Characteristics

The simple truth is that no two cuts of marble are alike. So, when your neighbors buy a cut of marble for their home (out of the pure admiration they have for yours, of course), their cut will be different from yours.

Marble resists heat very well. It holds up well when exposed to the high temperatures of pots and pans in your kitchen as well as hair dryers, straighteners, and curlers in your bathroom for a time (though we suggest you don’t allow for prolonged exposure).

Marble is as hard as a rock, but did you know that the hardness of stone varies? Well, marble is a softer stone, which makes is easier to work with, but it’s also easier to polish to keep that stone shining.

Marble is one of many stones that suffers from its porosity, which means it is susceptible to staining (wine, tomato juice, and acids can be particularly damaging). Now, you want to preserve marble’s characteristic beauty, so it should be re-sealed on an annual basis.
