The stovetop gets a sauce stain, the countertop gets wiped for the third time, and you make a mental note to find a better solution. The Verona Oceanic Marble Spoon Rest is that solution a handcrafted kitchen spoon rest in a warm and grey checkered marble design that sits beside your stove and quietly handles the mess before it starts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIt is made from two natural stone types: warm Verona marble and cool grey Oceanic marble. The checkered pattern comes from genuine stone, not a printed surface or manufactured composite. Because of that, the color, veining, and pattern vary slightly between individual pieces which is what you would expect from something carved from real marble rather than pressed in a mold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"MsoNormalTable\" border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"0\" style=\"mso-cellspacing: 1.5pt;

The smooth polished finish makes it easy to wipe clean between uses no scrubbing, no soaking, just a quick pass with a damp cloth.
