Marble
Since
the time of the Caesars, marble has been a symbol of elegance. Ancient Roman
craftsmen produced objects of such quality from marble that many of them survive
to this day. From the royal palaces to the public piazzas, the Romans also knew
how versatile marble could be. They used it for everything from tiling for
walkways and floors, to constructing aqueducts and buildings, to statuary and
architectural decorations.
Marble is still used in many of the time-honored ways, but modern
equipment and techniques allow us to expand its use beyond even that dreamed
of by the Romans. Today, bath vanities, tub decks and fireplace
surrounds infused with the beauty of marble have become much more
commonplace thanks to technology. Shape and application for this ancient
material are only limited by ones imagination. Its beauty will stand the test of time.
Quarried throughout the world, marble appears in a
stunning variety of natural colors and patterns.
The marble category can be further divided into subcategories including onyx, travertines, slates,
limestones, and
agglomerates.
