Care guide.
Preserving a Makrana marble piece across generations.
Display
Display indoors, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Makrana marble resists discolouration, but prolonged UV exposure may affect the surface finish over many years. A stable, low-humidity environment is ideal.
Cleaning
Dust with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. For deeper cleaning use a slightly damp cloth with plain water only, no detergents, acids or abrasive cleaners. Acidic substances such as lemon, vinegar and household cleaners will etch the surface. Dry immediately after wiping.
Handling
Makrana marble is dense and durable but can chip if dropped. Always handle a piece with both hands, supporting the base. Avoid placing it where it could slide or be knocked.
Polished finish
Polished surfaces can be refreshed with a marble-safe microcrystalline wax every 12 to 24 months. Apply with a soft cloth and buff gently in circular motions. This maintains the sheen without altering the stone.
Matte finish
Matte-finished pieces should not be waxed, as wax creates an uneven sheen. Clean with a dry cloth only.
Storage
If storing, wrap in acid-free tissue paper or a soft cloth. Do not leave bubble wrap against the stone for extended periods. Store upright or with full base support, never on its side without adequate padding.
