If combining it with other materials or marble types, it will go well with any red, brown and black tones   In this manner, you can create an interesting contrast. While on the other hand, we do not recommend combining it with grey, pink or white to avoid creating diffuse environments.

It is not only versatile for being suitable for multiple applications, but also because of the wide range of possibilities to change its aspect. By this we mean that Crema Marfil marble can be supplied with the following. finishes:

 

  • Polishing: smooth, glossy surface.
  • Raw: in this case, the surface is supplied directly after cutting, with no polishing.
  • Aged: a slightly coarse aspect in order to reflect the passage of time upon the material.
  • Bush hammering: produces a coarser finish. This makes it ideal for outdoor areas.
  • Honing: same as raw marble, with a matt surface but after removing all cutting marks.
  • Split face: this is the most rustic finish, which can achieve a very rugged surface.

Durability

 

Due to its features Crema Marfil marble is very durable over time. This is an important factor for those who are looking for the best value for money. Investing in a material that is going to last a lot longer will probably work out cheaper than other low cost options that will soon need replacing.

When used indoors, Crema Marfil is less exposed to the weather conditions outside. While if used outdoors, you will need to ensure that it has been filled, i.e., that the pores have been covered. Otherwise, water ingress would soon erode the material.

If the stone has been polished, you can recover its initial shine over time by re polishing it.

Variety

 

Variety is the spice of life. And since Crema Marfil marble can only be obtained from one location and we have no say in how it is produced, we will find it available in different tones.

  • Lighter tones.
  • Darker tones.
  • With more or less streaks. These can also be lighter or darker.
  • Rice grain type. Fossils that appear inside the material.
  • Water type. This effect is more evident after polishing, and it is reminiscent of waves or ripples.
