Found in nature, these tiles can simply not be exactly reproduced from synthetic materials, they are one of a kind and eco-friendly. Imperfection is a feature to be embraced here β scuffs and scratches will likely occur as this material is slightly porous and soft. There are different grades of stones though they all must be sealed! Donβt be discouraged; these natural beauties are still strong and recommended for floors, walls, and even outdoors.
