Crema Flower Marble

Crema Flower Marble features a warm, creamy beige to light ivory background with a delicate, fragmented natural pattern. Its surface is scattered with irregular, shard-like inclusions in slightly darker beige, cream and pale tan tones, resembling crushed shells or naturally embedded stone fragments. The subtle color variations and dispersed mineral formations create a distinctive textured appearance with understated visual depth. Quarried in Iran.

Texture & Structure

• Fine- to medium-grained crystalline texture.

• Compact natural stone structure.

• Irregular, fragmented mineral inclusions distributed throughout the surface.

• Shard-like patterns in beige, cream and pale tan shades.

• Subtle variations in grain size and mineral distribution.

• Naturally varied appearance with a relatively consistent warm background.

• Magnesium Oxide (MgO): 0.1–2%

• Aluminum Oxide (Al₂O₃): 0.1–1%

• Iron Oxide (Fe₂O₃): 0.05–0.5%

• Sodium Oxide (Na₂O): Trace amounts

• Potassium Oxide (K₂O): Trace amounts

Mineral Composition (% by Weight):

• Calcite: 90–98%

• Dolomite: 0–5%

• Quartz: 0–3%

• Clay Minerals and Mica: 0–2%

• Iron-bearing Accessory Minerals: Trace amounts

Usage

Suitable for interior flooring, wall cladding, bathroom vanities, countertops, staircases, window sills, fireplace surrounds, decorative panels, hotel lobbies, reception areas, residential interiors and commercial architectural projects. Its warm ivory and beige coloration makes it particularly suitable for classic, contemporary and Mediterranean-style designs. Available finishes include polished, honed, brushed, tumbled, sandblasted and antique.

Maintenance

Clean regularly using a pH-neutral stone cleaner and a soft cloth or mop. Avoid acidic substances, vinegar, strong chemicals and abrasive cleaning products, as marble is susceptible to acid etching and surface damage. Apply a suitable penetrating stone sealer to help reduce water and oil absorption. Wipe spills promptly, particularly coffee, wine, citrus juices and other staining liquids. Periodic resealing may be necessary depending on the application, surface finish and frequency of use.
