Niagara Black
Soapstone
Close Up
Niagara Black also known as Marine Black is a deep charcoal-to-black natural stone quarried in Northern India. Technically a phyllite, it is widely sold as soapstone for its similar visual aesthetic and dark, moody character with subtle wispy white veining. Unlike true soapstone, it has lower talc content and benefits from periodic sealing to maintain its surface. Highly heat-resistant and well-suited for kitchen countertops, laboratory surfaces, and interior wall cladding, it develops a rich, deepening patina when oiled or waxed.
