Care & Maintenance

• Installation Tips:
    • Dry lay sheets to preview pattern alignment and ensure consistent flow of gold veins and pearl inlays.
    • Use a white or light coloured thin-set mortar to avoid altering tones.
    • Keep grout joints tight and consistent for a polished, uniform appearance.
• Sealing: Must be sealed prior to grouting, and again after installation. Pearl is delicate, and the marble surface needs protection from moisture, staining, and etching.
• Cleaning: Use pH-neutral, non-abrasive cleaners. Soft cloths or lightly dampened sponges are best. Avoid acidic cleaners (vinegar, lemon), bleach, or abrasive scrubbers which can damage both marble and pearl surfaces.
• Natural Variation: Expect natural differences in the intensity of gold veins, pearl shade, and marble coloration. These variations give the product its unique charm. Always inspect sheets before installation to ensure visual coherence.
