Due to the soft nature of the Capri limestone, it is mostly recommended for certain types of finishings. But the types of finishing we most recommend are:
Honed
This type of finishing is plain and does not show any shine. It also shows a more discreet contrast between the white coloured background and its darker spots. Recommended for exterior cladding.
Some common applications: exterior cladding, coverings, basins.
Bush-hammered
This type of finishing has a corrugated appearance, turning the beige colour into white. Its surface is characterized by its salience and roughness, which is highly recommended for exterior flooring.
Some common applications: exterior flooring, swimming pool borders, stonework.
Polished
This is the type of finishing presents some shine and highlights the white colour and darker grain of the Capri limestone. The surface is very shiny and smooth, presenting a pleasant look.

Brushed
