Honed rainforest marble for shower

Is there any reason why it is not a good idea to use a honed rainforest marble for a shower application?
 

Dear Olga:

Nope, no reason whatsoever that I can think of.

That is, providing that it gets installed right and that you learn how to take good care of it.

But those recommendations have nothing to do with the stone itself, which has to be considered a “good guy”.
