Table Care FAQ

No, marble, the same as wood or even metal tables, can be
damaged. The appropriate care should always be taken

Sadly not, it defends deep penetration of offending oils and
acids but sadly cannot stop them entirely.

First & foremost seal the top, then take the usual precautionary care always by using suitable coasters and place mats, not allowing oven hot dishes to directly contact the marble & mopping up spillages within good time. Always choose a mild spray cleaner (preferably for marble) and without bleach.
