About the stone

Colour range sampled from the slab

Black Wood is a natural stone that brings together the beauty of nature and the warmth of timber. As the name suggests, the black veins recall the grain of wood and form an elegant image across the surface.

It is an ideal choice for creating a modern, sophisticated atmosphere indoors. The white or grey-toned veins across the black ground give a room depth and character. Black Wood can be used across many applications — worktops, flooring, wall cladding, and bathroom and kitchen schemes.

Care note

Marble is sensitive to acids (lemon, vinegar, wine, limescale remover). Use a neutral pH cleaner, wipe up spills at once and impregnate every 1–2 years.
