The most common surface finish on marble and granite, polished stones offer a glossy look.
Polished surfaces are machined with fine abrasives to give a reflective surface showing strong colours. The degree of polishing is determined by the mineral elements in the stone.
I found Ivett and Reed a really fantastic and professional organisation. Their staff helped me understand all the issues and came up with some great solutions, far exceeding my expectations. (Google 5 star review)
