Marble is a superior natural stone that is crafted with an array of benefits. It has been a material of choice in luxury homes, high-end interior designs and architectural buildings for thousands of years due to its natural elegance and lavish aesthetic. It’s also renowned for its functional properties including its discernible durability and simple maintenance. Discover the benefits of marble below.

Marble is a natural material sourced from quarries around the world. Styling marble in your home instantly creates an opulent aesthetic synonymous with prestigious hotels and remarkable architecture. Due to its natural form, each piece of marble is completely unique and the patterning and colour variation will differ between each design. This creates visual interest and rich character in your home which can also increase the value of your property.

Marble is easily maintained and following the correct care, damage and breakage can be prevented. If you have marble decor in your bathroom such as, a basin, vanity unit or freestanding bath you should dry water from the surface, after each use, to prevent staining. The surface should also be cleaned at least once a week, with a mild soap solution and soft cloth, to ensure the beauty of your marble piece is maintained. We also recommend you have your marble sealed once a year by a specialist to prevent cracking.

Marble is designed to withstand the test of time, and is extremely superior in strength which is why Lusso’s marble collection comes with a lifetime guarantee. As long as you correctly follow aftercare instructions, your marble homeware or bathroom fittings will last a lifetime.

As marble is an extremely durable material, it is also resistant to heat. It’s less likely to catch fire or burn compared to other materials. However, it is important not to place heat appliances on top of marble countertops, such as vanity units and tables, as this could risk stains or marks.
