<p>cheers - I love natural marble too. (and I’m a sloppy cook…lol!)</p>
<p>I actually have finely polished marble accents (dark emperador) in my bathroom floors (and bedroom fireplace)and it has held up beautifully with foot traffic. </p>
<p>Coincidentally, my nightstand has a dark emperador top too. I didn’t realized I was matching the nightstand when I selected the marble for the floor. (subconscious thing I suppose). That nightstand top does have a bit of fill in it…so sometimes that needs to be replaced…but it’s not a biggie.</p>
