Marble is a natural stone which will have unique imperfections and characteristics. Any variations in color, texture, polish and patterns are not faults.

• Color difference

We endeavor to ensure that all colors are displayed accurately, but you should be aware that colors may appear slightly different from the online images. Firstly, the same image will look different on different devices because the display resolution and the pixel size are different. Secondly, the same products will look different under different color temperature. The warm light is yellow and cool light is blue which will change the product color.  Thirdly, the brighter (higher lumens) the room is, the lighter the product will look like. Fourthly, the color may vary from dye lot to dye lot. The supplier cannot guarantee that the colors are exactly the same in different production batches.  These color differences are not a fault or error. These will be classified as a change of mind and returning items based on change of mind will be at the expense of the customer.
