What to know about the materials

A few materials this style uses need more care than they look like they will. Worth knowing before you choose them.

MarbleMarble etches when something acidic sits on it, like lemon, wine or tomato, and the marks are permanent. Some people love the softened look that builds up over time and some do not, so it is worth deciding before it goes in a kitchen.

LimestoneLimestone etches quickly, so it is not a good choice for a kitchen countertop.

TravertineTravertine is better kept off kitchen countertops.
