What is Honed Stone?

What is “honed” stone?

So many fancy terms…..!

Granite, marble, or limestone that is honed has a matte or satin finish, rather than a high reflective polish. One feature of honed marble is that it doesn’t show etching as readily, or wear patterns on stone floors. No more scuffed down foot trails on your gorgeous floor! Many people prefer it because it has a less formal, softer appearance than polished stone.

One of the many great things about stone is how versatile it is. If your stone is currently polished to a high sheen, but you really fancy the look of honed stone, have no fear – Stone Surface Specialists are here! Or will be, as soon as you give us a call at 801 856 0164. We can polish your stone up to a high gloss finish, or hone it down to a beautiful soft matte or satin finish. Just tell us what you’d like and we’ll get to work pronto on your unique piece of stone.
