모카 석회암

Moca Limestone is a premium natural stone prized for its subtle beauty, fine grain, and characteristic parallel vein pattern. Quarried predominantly in Portugal, Moca Limestone is part of a family of materials widely used in architectural and interior design for its neutral tones and modern yet organic aesthetic. With its distinctive horizontal striations and warm beige to light taupe color palette, Moca Limestone is a popular choice for contemporary and classic spaces.

Moca Limestone exhibits a light beige to golden cream base, accentuated by fine, linear veins that run horizontally across the surface. These veins can range from light brown to greyish hues, offering a beautifully layered effect that is elegant and understated. Its natural tones make Moca Limestone exceptionally versatile, working seamlessly with various materials such as wood, metal, and glass.

Moca Limestone has a medium density and fine to medium grain. It is softer than granite but more compact than many other limestones, making it suitable for a variety of both interior and exterior applications. When honed, it offers a smooth, matte finish that highlights the veining without reflecting excessive light — ideal for achieving a soft, inviting ambiance in any space.

One of the most distinctive features of Moca Limestone is its vein-cut appearance, where the stone is cut parallel to the natural bedding planes. This process results in the striking horizontal lines that make Moca Limestone so visually appealing. For a more uniform look, some clients may opt for a cross-cut finish, which produces a cloudier, more homogeneous surface, but it is the vein-cut version that truly defines the identity of Moca Limestone in the design world.

유지 관리 팁

Like all natural stones, Moca Limestone requires regular maintenance to preserve its aesthetic and structural integrity. It is recommended to:

Seal the stone upon installation and reseal every 1–2 years depending on usage.

Clean with pH-neutral cleaners to avoid etching or dulling the surface.

Use soft cloths or mops to avoid abrasion.
