Description

Valverde Polished Limestone is a warm brown stone with light beige spotting. The beige and brown overlap each other creating a translucent effect. The design of this stone is almost orange in color, making it the perfect option for those looking to add warmth to a room.

This is a natural stone, so be sure to pick your stones carefully for your home remodeling project as each piece may look different. This stone would look excellent next to any color. The brown shade would bring a nature-like quality to the room, regardless if more modern furniture is around it. Pair this with colors complementary to orange and red in order to make the warmth of this stone stand out more, or, alternatively, it can be used as neutral. Limestone, like Valverde Polished, is well-known for its beauty. It is commonly installed in spaces such as bathroom countertops, backsplashes, flooring, and walls. While attractive in color and pattern, it requires a more advanced level of care. The stone is porous, soft, and chemically-sensitive, so can be easily stained by acidic fluids as well as scratched by harder materials. It is not recommended for high traffic locations.

At marble.com samples are free, and we encourage our clients to take up to ten samples per visit.

All Marble.com facilities carry slabs of granite, quartz, quartzite, marble, soapstone, slate, limestone, and travertine. Our Ridgefield Park yard has the largest selection, also offering slabs of gemstone, porcelain, and glass.
3. Why should I see a slab in person?
Since every slab of natural stone is completely unique, we recommend visiting one of our facilities to see slab patterns and variations in person.
4. Where does your material come from?
At marble.com we source our stone only from the most reputable quarries from around the globe, including those from Italy, Spain, Brazil, and India.
5. Why is some stone more expensive than others?
Stone slabs that are extremely rare and boast unique colors tend to be more expensive than commonly found stone.
6. Do I have to seal natural stone?
We do recommend sealing natural stone countertops periodically, the frequency of sealing the stone depends on the material.
7. What is a honed finish?
A honed stone finish refers to the smooth, matte surface of the material, which creates a visibly lighter and softer tone. While honed finish might be an ideal design choice for some homeowners, it also makes the stone more susceptible to staining and etching.

Most chips, smaller than a dime in diameter, can be repaired by the homeowner using a chip repair kit. We do recommend professional service care for larger chips.
9. Can I install my own countertops?
We recommend professional installation, completed by our trained technicians for all major projects, however some smaller pieces may be installed by the customers.
