What Fior di Bosco looks like: greenish gray clouds
Light gray and olive gray clouds spread over a greenish gray background in wide patches. The fine light veins almost disappear into the whole, so the contrast stays low and the slab looks calm. The photo shows the polished, glossy surface. Variation within this slab is moderate. The slab that reaches your job will carry its own pattern: it is chosen from photos of the available pieces.

Questions about Fior di Bosco
How do I tell Fior di Bosco apart from Tundra marble?
Both are cloudy grays. Tundra marble is a medium gray with darker clouds and a fine speckle of light dots; in the photo, Fior di Bosco stays in the muted greenish gray, with fine veins that barely show.
How does Fior di Bosco hold up on a kitchen countertop?
It depends on what you expect from the countertop: marble takes a patina over the years, and those etching marks stay in view. On a polish this smooth, a splash of lemon or wine leaves, once dry, a dull area that no longer shines like the rest. You avoid that area by wiping the liquid up right away. To compare it with more forgiving stones, see the marble or granite guide.
Which finish is best in a shower?
Honed or brushed. Polished slips when wet; honed and brushed grip better underfoot. The finish changes the shine and the feel, not the hardness of the stone.
What care does Fior di Bosco marble need?
Water and neutral soap are all the cleaning this marble asks for. Acid, from a cleaner or from food, is what needs hurry: wipe it up right away. To find out whether a slab absorbs, drop some water on it: when the stone darkens at that spot, it is time to seal.
