marble flooring

Luxurious ground surface

Marble flooring is flooring made from marble—polished slabs of the metamorphic stone cut and fitted as a surface.

Associated with luxury and classical architecture, it appears in grand entryways, bathrooms, and formal spaces: The lobby featured white marble flooring with gray veining.

The material is durable but requires sealing and care to prevent staining.
