cultured marble

Synthetic countertop material

Cultured marble is a manufactured material made from crusite marble dust mixed with polyester resin, molded into shapes for bathroom vanities, countertops, and shower surrounds.

It mimics the appearance of natural marble at lower cost but lacks its durability and prestige.

The surface can be repaired and refinished, unlike natural stone: The cultured marble vanity had a glossy, seamless finish.
