The Negro Marquina marble can accept most types of finishing, due to its hard nature. However, the types of finishing we most recommend are:

Polished

This is the type of finishing that most enhances the beautiful dark black colour of the Negro Marquina. The surface is very shiny and smooth, highlighting the best colour of this stone.

Some common applications: flooring, kitchen countertops, basins.
