Every veneer is one of a kind. The image shows the stone; your piece will look different.

The story

Invisible Grey is a marble from Italy, the country whose quarries have set the standard for marble since antiquity. It is a true marble: carbonate rock that recrystallised completely under pressure and heat deep in the Earth’s crust. Fine veining runs across its pale grey ground, and no two veneers are alike.

Polished, it feels cool and understated – a grey that never pushes itself forward and stands out precisely because of it.

Properties

Polished, deep, with veins that never repeat. In the stone trade almost every polishable stone is called marble – we tell you what it really is geologically.

Care

Clean with the Stone Cleaner. If the surface looks dull, the Marble Liquid Polish brings back the shine. Wipe off acids such as lemon juice, vinegar or wine promptly.
