Grey Imperiale Marble brings character to any space. It is a natural metamorphic stone valued for its classic elegance and soft, luminous surface. Its palette features white tones with soft, subtle movement.
Look and Character
As with any natural stone, each Grey Imperiale slab has its own pattern and color variation. Seeing the full slab in person is the best way to pick the perfect one for your project.
Best Uses
Use Grey Imperiale marble for bathroom vanities, shower walls, fireplace surrounds, backsplashes and elegant kitchen countertops. For a balanced design, combine it with white, gray, navy or natural wood cabinetry.
Care and Maintenance
Marble is softer and more porous than granite, and acidic liquids such as lemon juice, wine or vinegar can etch the surface. Seal it regularly, wipe spills right away and clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner.

Grey Imperiale FAQ
Is Grey Imperiale Marble good for kitchen countertops?
It works well in kitchens if you are comfortable with some etching and patina over time; many homeowners choose it for vanities, islands and baking areas.
Does Marble need to be sealed?
Yes. Marble should be sealed more often, usually every 6 to 12 months. Sealing helps with stains but does not prevent etching from acidic foods.
How does Grey Imperiale Marble compare with quartzite?
Marble offers the classic look but is softer and etches with acids; quartzite gives a similar look with much higher durability.
Can I see the actual Grey Imperiale slab, and do you serve North Charleston and Mount Pleasant?
Yes. Natural and engineered surfaces vary by lot, so we help you see the actual slab before fabrication. Stonphase serves Charleston, SC and nearby areas including North Charleston, Mount Pleasant and West Ashley.
