In this occasion we manufacture a fireplace in macael white marble and polished finish, from the model provided by the customer of a photo and customizing the measurements according to your requests.

Luckily in this case the wear was more or less superficial and only in some slabs, so the final result was optimal. Below we show you pictures of the work done, where we proceeded to first clean the outer terracotta and eradicate the salitres stains, to later apply terracotta treatment to the wet effec t .
