Marble is a metamorphic rock that is created as a result of the metamorphosis of a combination of rocks under intense pressure and temperatures. 

These rocks include calcite, limestone, dolomite and serpentine! Minerals present during recrystallization can sometimes tint the entire piece of marble in a wide variety of colors. Blues, grays, pinks, and reds are the most common, but green, purple and yellow marbles can also be found

It takes hundreds of years to form and is found among the oldest parts of the Earth’s crust and it has been one of the most beautiful and sought-after stones for centuries. 

Whether it’s as pure white as snow or streaked with colorful veins, each piece of marble is unique and when used in the home, adds an undeniable touch of luxury and opulence. 

Regardless of the coloration, one of the most unique aspects of marble is that it’s translucent, meaning you can see past the outer surface. Although no marble is completely transparent, you can often see through at least a few millimeters of the stone, which is one of the reasons it has been used so extensively in sculpture. 

It’s a good option for those who are searching for an elegant, luxurious and delicate stone.
