How Durable Are These Materials?

Marble is heat-resistant but can scratch or stain if left unsealed. Onyx is more delicate and should be used carefully in low-traffic areas. Zeolite’s texture makes it less prone to visible scratches but more absorbent.

📌 Interesting Fact: Some varieties of marble can be harder than steel, depending on their mineral composition, making them ideal for durable homeware.

Are These Materials Heat & Scratch Resistant?

Marble: Naturally strong but requires sealing to resist stains.
Onyx: More fragile than marble, best for statement pieces rather than heavy-use surfaces.
Zeolite: Highly porous with an earthy, raw texture, used for decorative and functional elements.

📌 Interesting Fact: The Parthenon in Athens, built from marble over 2,000 years ago, still stands today, proving marble’s longevity when properly maintained.

Daily Cleaning & Maintenance

• Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and surface marks.
• Use a pH-neutral stone cleaner or mild dish soap mixed with warm water.
• Avoid acidic cleaners (vinegar, lemon juice) and abrasive pads, which can etch or scratch the surface.

Removing Stains & Deep Cleaning

• Marble & Onyx: If a stain appears, create a paste using bicarbonate of soda and water. Apply, cover with cling film, and leave overnight before wiping clean.
• Zeolite: Can be rinsed under water and left to dry naturally in sunlight to refresh its air-purifying properties.
• Always blot spills immediately, especially with acidic liquids like wine or citrus juice, to prevent staining.

Sealing & Long-Term Protection

• Marble and onyx should be sealed every 6-12 months to maintain their resistance to moisture and stains.
• Look for high-quality stone sealers designed for natural stone surfaces.
• Apply sealant evenly with a soft cloth and let it absorb fully before buffing.
• Use coasters, trivets, and placemats under glasses and hot dishes to protect the surface.

Polishing & Restoring Shine

• Buff marble and onyx with a microfibre cloth to maintain a natural sheen.
• For a deeper polish, search for marble polishing powders to enhance the stone’s smooth finish.
• Zeolite does not require polishing, as its raw texture is part of its natural beauty.


📌 Interesting Fact: Sealing marble does not change its appearance but helps protect it from absorbing oils and water, making it easier to clean and maintain.

Will My Order Be Packed Well?

📌 Interesting Fact: Using sustainable packaging like hive paper reduces plastic waste and provides excellent shock absorption during shipping.

How We Reduce Waste?

We prioritise sustainability by crafting our pieces from high-quality stone offcuts, ensuring that each piece is repurposed rather than discarded. This approach reduces waste while maintaining the integrity of natural materials.

📌 Interesting Fact: The use of stone offcuts in design reduces waste by up to 40% compared to traditional full-slab production.
