Calacatta Gold Marble Quarter-Round – Premium Polished Trim Molding

Product Overview Finish your tile project with the subtle, high-end detail of the Calacatta Gold Marble Quarter-Round. This 12-inch natural stone molding is crafted from authentic Italian Calacatta Gold marble, famous for its brilliant white base and prestigious veins of honey, gold, and soft gray. Featuring a perfectly convex, 90-degree curved profile, this trim is the ideal solution for softening sharp corners, finishing the edges of a backsplash, or providing a smooth transition between wall and floor tiles. Its polished finish adds a refined shimmer that ties your entire room together.

Key Features & Benefits

• Iconic Italian Marble: Sourced from the world-renowned quarries of Italy, providing a luxury finish that complements both classic and modern interiors.

• Versatile Quarter-Round Profile: The 90-degree curve is perfect for "turning corners" or masking the raw edges of field tiles and mosaics.

• Radiant Polished Finish: The high-gloss surface highlights the natural gold minerals within the stone and makes the trim incredibly easy to maintain.

• Professional Edge Treatment: Essential for high-moisture areas like showers to ensure water runs off the edge rather than sitting on a raw tile lip.

• Natural Durability: Being solid natural stone, this trim is heat-resistant and built to last a lifetime with proper care.

Maintenance & Long-Term Care To protect the elegance of your Calacatta Gold trim:

• Seal Upon Installation: Apply a high-quality, non-yellowing penetrating sealer before and after grouting to protect the marble from moisture and stains.

• Cleaning: Use a soft cloth and a pH-neutral stone cleaner. Avoid acidic cleaners (vinegar, lemon) or bleach, which will etch and dull the polished surface.

• Grout Safety: Use a non-sanded grout during installation to prevent micro-scratches on the polished face of the marble.

• Regular Care: In wet areas, wipe the trim dry after use to prevent soap scum and mineral deposits from clouding the natural shine.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Q: Where is a quarter-round typically used? A: It is most commonly used to finish the outside corner of a shower wall, to cap the top of a tiled wainscoting, or as a transition piece between a kitchen backsplash and the wall.

• Q: Does every piece have gold veining? A: Natural stone varies by nature. Some pieces may be pure white, while others will have rich gold and gray veins. We recommend ordering a few extra pieces to select the best color match for your field tile.

• Q: Is this trim real stone? A: Yes, it is 100% natural marble. It offers a depth and character that synthetic or ceramic trims cannot replicate.

• Q: How do I cut this molding? A: We recommend using a wet saw with a diamond blade intended for natural stone for a clean, professional cut.
