A soft dove gray, with a slight green undertone, Ming Green marble is much more demure than its name might suggest. It has a subtle white and gray veining, giving the stone the gorgeous character that marble is so famous for. It is fairly irregular - no veining will ever be identical, and each stone carries its own shade balance. Ming Green marble looks great as part of a contemporary kitchen design. Its subtle cool tone is the color of the moment and would look great as a floor, backsplash, or countertop.

Marble is one of the most exquisite materials on the market. It is widely regarded as the most beautiful natural stone due to the huge variety of colors and patterns available. It has been used in European architecture for generations to create a luxurious and opulent design. The famous Italian sculptor, Michelangelo, used marble for a number of his structures, many of which are still around today.

A polished finish is smooth and glossy. It has a mirror-like surface that bounces light around a room, this can add to the feeling of spaciousness and make a room feel bright and airy. But one of the biggest benefits of a polished finish is the effect it has on the stone's color palette. A glossy sheen adds clarity, making the light tones brighter and the darker veins more contrasting. Where some finishes mute a stone's gorgeous colors, a polished finish emboldens them, lifting each shade to its full potential.

The glossy sheen is created by grinding the stone, removing all evidence of bumps, ridges, and imperfections. The tile can then be buffed, removing a thin layer of its surface in order to bring out a brilliant shine. This is a high-end finish that will add a touch of luxury to your interior.

Marble has made a serious comeback in the interior design world, adding a touch of luxury to your home that cannot be replicated by man-made materials. Create a chic and contemporary kitchen with a Ming Green marble floor paired with gloss kitchen cupboards. Incorporate rich metallics such as gold and copper for the ultimate opulent design.

But nothing can feel more luxurious than a Ming Green marble in a bathroom setting. Use it to create a floor to ceiling tiled wall, a backdrop to your traditional roll top cast iron bathtub. Finally, incorporate golden picture frames, radiators, and faucets to finish off the look.

Ming Green marble doesn't have to display opulence. Go for a subtler design with pale colors and matte textures. Add soft furnishings in various shades of gray to create a calm and tranquil design.
