With matted marble countertops growing more and more popular, many home and business owners with shiny, polished marble countertops are wondering, is it possible to make their marble counters matter also?

This matted finish is actually known as what is called a, “honed finish.” A honed finish takes your gorgeous natural stone and instead of leaving it with a shiny and reflective finish, makes it matte and velvety. This finish brings a new dramatic interest to a room because it beautifully displays the natural stone, while also showing it in a new, less common, way.   Natural honed counters are rapidly increasing in popularity, making their way into more homes across the world.
