Ceramic has a baked on finish. If it chips you will see it. Marble stains, etches and is $$$. With porcelain, the color goes right through the tile. Not $$$ an d there are some beauties from which to choose.

I'd contact or research a manufacturer for the nitty-gritty details, but here are some links with basic information to help you:

From experience, marble is extremely high-maintenance and pricey, but is more luxurious than ceramic or porcelain. Ceramic and porcelain are more durable and have more options to choose from, but often lack the luxe and elegance of marble. Personally, we've had the best luck with ceramic tile. Though any tile is liable to crack if something heavy and pointed hits it directly!

For all three: please have a professional do the installation--the tile will last longer and look better!! DIY-er's often underestimate the difficulty of this task and end up with lots of extra expenses and an ugly floor!
