About Shadow Storm
Shadow Storm is a light grey and white marble with soft, smoky charcoal streaks that drift across the slab. The effect is gentle and moody.
It works well in baths, vanities and backsplashes, and pairs with white, grey and black cabinets and matte black or chrome fixtures.

Shadow Storm questions we get asked
Is Shadow Storm a dark marble?
No. It is a light grey and white marble with soft charcoal streaks.
What finish works best for Shadow Storm?
Honed suits its soft, smoky look and hides etching better. Polished brings out more contrast.
Will Shadow Storm etch or stain?
Marble is softer than granite and reacts to acids, so lemon, vinegar, wine, tomato and some cleaners can leave dull etch marks if left sitting. Wipe spills promptly, use coasters and a pH-neutral stone cleaner. Many owners accept a soft patina over time as part of marble's character.
Does Shadow Storm need to be sealed?
Yes. We seal at install and suggest checking once a year: if a few drops of water darken the stone within a few minutes, it is time to reseal. Sealing helps with stains but does not prevent etching.
Polished or honed: which finish is better for Shadow Storm?
Polished shows off the color and veining but makes etch marks easier to see. Honed is matte, hides etching and scratches better and feels softer to the touch, though it can show oil marks until wiped. It depends on how you use the space.
