Care and fabrication

  • Acids such as lemon juice and wine etch the surface. Wipe spills quickly.
  • Honed finishes hide wear and etching better than polished.

Questions about Black Forest Marble

How do I choose the actual Black Forest Marble slabs?

Ask for photos of the slabs available. We send each slab numbered and measured, so you approve the exact slabs before anything is cut or shipped.

Can Black Forest Marble be book-matched?

Yes, when consecutive slabs from the same block are available. Ask for numbered slabs from one block and mark the joint on your drawings.

Can Black Forest Marble be used outdoors?

We recommend it for interiors. For outdoor areas, look at granite, travertine or terrazzo.
