Other techniques for producing faux marble include [[Scagliola]], a costly process which involves the use of specially pigmented plasters, and [[terrazzo]]. For flooring, marble chips are imbedded in cement, then ground and polished to expose the marble aggregate.

Some professional faux finishers are very skilled and will use a variety of techniques to reproduce the colours, veining and luster of real marble or other building materials. However, many decorators will merely suggest the appearance of marble rather than accurately imitate a particular stone.
