What Grigio Tao marble looks like
The dark brown of the background dominates the slab in the photo: the vertical lines are faint and the only white vein is fine. The banding shifts gently between coffee brown and dark brown, so contrast stays low and the pattern even across the slab. The name does not describe the color: Gris Tao is a trade name, and the tone of this slab is dark brown.

Grigio Tao, polished or matte
The slab in the photo is polished; this is how the shine and the feel change with each finish.
-
Polished
The shine in the photo, with a smooth feel; acid marks show sooner on it.
-
Honed
Matte and soft to the touch; wet, it is less slippery than polished.
-
Brushed
Low shine and a fine texture to the touch; another option for wet areas, alongside honed.

Frequently asked questions about Grigio Tao
Why does Grigio Tao look brown instead of gray?
Because the name is a trade name, not a description of the color. Gris Tao and Grigio Tao are two names for the same stone. The slab in the photo is dark brown, with faint vertical lines and a single fine white vein. Before you buy, we send you photos of the slabs available for your order.
Can I use Grigio Tao in the kitchen?
Yes, if you accept that use will leave its patina on the surface over the years. A splash of lemon or vinegar also leaves a dull halo on the polish that sealer does not prevent: it is a chemical reaction, not a stain. If you need a countertop without marks, read the marble or granite guide first.
What care does Grigio Tao marble need?
Daily cleaning needs pH-neutral soap and water. Wipe an acid spill dry right away, before it leaves its mark. To tell whether it is time to seal, set a drop of water on the stone: if it darkens under the drop, apply sealer.
How does Grigio Tao behave on a floor?
It does well on home floors; in heavy-traffic areas the shine wears down. Wet, polished stone is slippery, so bathrooms and showers call for honed or brushed. If a scratch appears, light damage can be polished out.
How does Grigio Tao reach my country?
We ship to any country, with the stone's documents of origin and its CE certification. On the shipping page we explain how it reaches each region.
