The Origins of Black and White Honed Marble Tiles

Marble has been a symbol of luxury and sophistication for centuries. Originating from the mountains of Carrara in Italy, this natural stone has been used in some of the world's most iconic structures, from the Pantheon in Rome to the Taj Mahal in India.

Top Five Best Practices for Using Black and White Honed Marble Tiles

  • Choose the right location: These tiles are perfect for areas like bathrooms and kitchens, where their elegance can truly shine.
  • Consider the lighting: The reflective surface of marble can enhance the natural light in a room, making it appear larger and more open.
  • Maintain regularly: To keep your tiles looking their best, clean them regularly with a mild, non-acidic cleaner.
  • Seal your tiles: Marble is porous, so it's important to seal your tiles to protect them from stains and damage.
