How To Care Marble and Travertine furniture?

Marble and travertine furniture are highly durable and need minimal care to maintain their beauty.

Every marble or travertine furniture is unique – no table will have the same shades or patterns.

DO

Weve applied a clear lacquer to protect the marble or travertine against wine, grease and coffee spills. But wipe any spills immediately with a clean cloth to avoid staining.

Use table runners, place mats and coasters to reduce the chances of marking and damaging the marble or travertine furniture.

DONT
Dont use acidic, lemon or vinegar-based cleaners - a mild soapy solution will do the trick, but remember to rub the marble or travertine dry.

Dont drag your table as it will stress the frame. Grab your husband/flatmate/neighbour and carefully lift it from both ends when moving.

Avoid knocking your table as this may chip or scratch the marble or travertine furniture. ... more

There are some marbles that are as hard as granite, so look for those if you want the most durable flooring. Sand and acidic liquids are marble tile’s biggest enemies. If you can keep these things out of the bathroom, you’ll be able to keep the marble sparkling for years. ... more
