charcoal-to-slate-gray base threaded with fine white and silver veining. Its dense, compact grain gives it a refined, almost architectural quality that reads as boldly modern in both residential and commercial settings. The honed finish softens the surface to a smooth, matte appearance that highlights the stone's cool tonal depth without the mirror-like reflectivity of polish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eAs a product of nature, each piece of Pietra Gray will carry its own unique pattern of veining and tonal shift — minor variations from piece to piece are the hallmark of authentic natural stone and contribute to the character of the finished installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout this molding:\u003c\/strong\u003e This 3\/4 × 12 pencil liner is a slender, elongated molding strip cut from Pietra Gray marble and honed to a smooth matte finish, designed to create clean transitions, border accents, or decorative banding in tilework — sold per linear foot for precise quantity planning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"tmd-seo-col\"\u003e\n      \u003ch4\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Inspiration\u003c\/h4\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003ePietra Gray's cool charcoal palette pairs beautifully with brushed nickel, matte black fixtures, white oak cabinetry, and crisp white marble fields like Thassos or Carrara, anchoring spaces in a contemporary or transitional aesthetic. Its dark, understated tone suits spa-inspired bathrooms, sleek kitchen designs, and minimalist interiors that rely on contrast and clean geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe 3\/4 × 12 pencil liner format is ideal for framing tile installations — outlining niches, defining the border between field tile and decorative mosaic bands, or capping the edge of a wainscot — delivering a sharp, architectural line that reads as intentional and refined. The honed finish keeps the profile low-key and texture-consistent, harmonizing with other matte or honed stone surfaces in the same space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003ePopular design combinations: pair this Pietra Gray pencil liner with a large-format Pietra Gray honed field tile and a Thassos White marble mosaic accent band for a high-contrast, spa-quality shower surround.

Although dark marble is less prone to showing staining than pale stones, the honed finish is more absorbent than polished and benefits from sealing every 1–2 years in wet areas such as showers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCleaning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clean with a pH-neutral stone soap or mild dish soap diluted in water — never use acidic cleaners (vinegar, citrus), bleach, or abrasive scrubbers, as these will etch and dull the honed surface. Wipe dry after use in wet areas to prevent mineral deposits and soap scum buildup on the matte finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use white or gray polymer-modified thinset mortar appropriate for the adjoining field tile color. For thin pencil liner strips, back-butter each piece individually to ensure full contact and prevent lippage or cracking. Maintain consistent joint width and use painter's tape to hold pieces in alignment while the mortar sets; non-sanded grout is recommended for the narrow joints typical of pencil liner installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"tmd-info-note\"\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eImportant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Inspect all tile before installation.
