Key Features

• The basketweave layout adds texture and pattern interest, offering more visual complexity than plain field tiles.
• Polished finish enhances the marble aesthetic — bringing brightness, reflections, and elegance.
• Calacatta veining gives a dramatic white-and-gray marble look, elevating spaces with a high-end stone feel but with the durability, stain resistance, and lower maintenance of porcelain.
• Ideal for accent or decorative zones where the pattern can shine; pairing with simpler field tiles will help balance the visual richness.

Care & Maintenance

• Clean with a soft cloth or non-abrasive mop; use pH-neutral cleaner to preserve the polished finish.
• Avoid harsh acidic or abrasive cleaners as they can dull polish or damage grout.
• Grout lines should be sealed to resist staining; polish surfaces highlight grout appearance.
• Periodic polishing or buffing may keep the shine high; wipe spills promptly.
• For floors: ensure slip safety especially when wet (polished surfaces can be slippery unless textured or properly placed).
