Are you looking for a team specialising in marble restoration in the Sablon, Brussels or the surrounding area? Atelier Coperta renovates your marble pieces in your home, such as your marble stairs. We also repair all types of sculpture in stone, alabaster and marble.
Marble
How to recognize marble?
To clean your marble, grey marble, white marble or black marble, simply pour liquid black soap or Marseille soap into hot water. Then pour the solution onto your marble. Be sure to dry your marble well as it is not fond of water.
All pieces are unique, so please contact our workshop directly for a quote.
Alabaster
How to recognise alabaster?
Alabaster is a very homogeneous, milky white natural material used for stone cutting and sculpture. There are two types of alabaster: calcareous alabaster and gypsum alabaster.
Gypsum alabaster or "false alabaster", also called white alabaster. It is semi-transparent and does not scratch.
Calcareous alabaster or calcite, also called oriental alabaster, is easily scratched. It is most commonly used for the colour of its veins.
How to clean alabaster?
You will need to take a sponge and soak it in soapy water. Then pour a light layer of baking soda on your sponge. Your alabaster will be whitened.
The stone
How to clean your stone?
All you need is a sponge, a brush and a mixture of baking soda and black soap.
