Every piece of marble is a magnificent work of art created by the greatest artist of them all.
When stone is subject to intense
pressure and heat, it re-crystallises
into a harder material. The streams of coloured
minerals give marbles their distinctive veining.
Consecutive slabs in
a block of marble can be used to dramatic effect
where the veins reflect at the junction of each
slab.
Suitable applications
The ancient Greeks loved constructing in white marble. Today, we
tend to admire the natural colours and patination of this
beautiful stone and it is easy to see why it has been used
in interiors for thousands of years. A bathroom wall can be clad in huge sheets or it can be used as flooring and in wet-rooms but
will also make fabulous kitchen worksurfaces.
