What Rosso Francia marble looks like
Red fills the slab in the photo: horizontal stripes alternating with blue-gray and white bands, so close together they form dense banding, all under the sheen of the polish. The three tones separate clearly and, within the slab, the pattern changes strongly from one stretch to another.

Questions About Rosso Francia Marble
Are Rosso Francia and Rojo Francia the same stone?
Yes. Rojo Francia and Rosso Francia are two ways of writing the same trade name: they name the same stone. Before you buy, we send photos of the slabs available for your order.
How does Rosso Francia marble hold up in a kitchen?
Acids leave their mark: lemon, wine or an acidic cleaner produce a dull spot on the polish that does not come off with scrubbing. The stone enters the kitchen if you accept the patina: the countertop will keep taking marks over the years. If you want fewer marks, granite is the material that resists acids best.
How is it different from Rosso Cardinale marble?
In its photo, Rosso Cardinale looks burgundy, with irregular white veins and grayish-purple patches; the Rosso Francia slab in the photo leans on the banding, with tight horizontal stripes of red, grayish-blue and white. Compare them calmly on the Rosso Cardinale marble page.
What care does Rosso Francia marble need?
For daily cleaning, water with neutral soap is enough; what matters is drying any acidic liquid that lands on the stone right away. If the stone darkens under a drop of water, it is time to seal. Over the years, traffic dulls the sheen of the surface, and repolishing brings it back.
How does Rosso Francia marble 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.
