Key features that matter

Smart installation ideas

Use the 2x12 border as a defining accent along a field tile wall to create a framed, gallery-like panel. The polished Crema Marfil surface catches light beautifully, while the Emp. Dark Dots provide a restrained contrast that coordinates with brass, nickel, or matte black hardware. Mix with lighter Crema Marfil field tiles for a cohesive look, or pair with warm neutrals to accentuate the border’s subtle sophistication.

Care & maintenance

As with all natural marble, sealing upon installation helps protect against stains and etching. Clean with a pH-neutral, non-abrasive cleaner, and wipe up spills promptly to preserve luster. Avoid acidic cleaners and harsh scrubbing that can dull the polished surface. Re-seal as recommended by your installer to maintain the border’s vibrant color and precise edges over time.

Design tips

Coordinate with Crema Marfil field tiles for a cohesive, spa-like environment. Choose grout tones that either blend with the cream base for a seamless look or contrast slightly to highlight the border detail. The combination of the BIAS Border and Emp. Dark Dots delivers a refined, architectural touch that elevates any kitchen, bath, or feature wall.
