Questions about Golden Black
Where is Golden Black from?
Golden Black is an imported marble. We confirm the country of origin for each lot when you enquire, and we do not state it here until it is confirmed. Akrruthi sells every stone under its true origin.
Is Golden Black good for kitchen countertops?
No. Golden Black is not suited to a kitchen counter. For a counter, choose granite and keep Golden Black for feature walls and flooring borders and inlays.
Which finish is best for Golden Black?
Golden Black can take these finishes: polished and honed. It is most often sold polished. Polished shows colour and pattern most strongly; honed and textured finishes are matt and give more grip. Ask which finish is available in the lot you choose.
How do I clean and maintain Golden Black?
Maintenance is high. Dark polish shows scratches and etching. Seal and use door mats. Avoid acidic and bleach-based cleaners on natural stone.
