What makes real marble so valuable?

Simply, history and quality. Without a question, if you want to add elegance and a touch of class to your home, real marble is generally regarded as the most cherished and valuable material in the world.

The finest structures and monuments in the world, like the Washington Monument and the Taj Mahal, have been adorned with genuine marble. Marble conveys a sense of elegance, beauty, and refinement. Using natural marble as your primary component will undoubtedly improve the look and elegance of any project, no matter how big or small.

Naturally, the fact that marble comes in a wide variety of shapes and formats, including hexagons, chevrons, and mosaics, as well as a wide range of colours and tones, from the whitest whites to the darkest blacks, and every other colour in between, contributes to the growing appeal of this already loved and esteemed natural stone type.

What is the formation process of marble?

To put it simply, marble is essentially limestone that has been subjected to high temperatures and pressures over time, causing the minerals to enlarge and fuse to form what is known as natural marble.

Since pure calcite lacks any other minerals that might enhance colour, white is the most widely recognisable colour of natural marble. Throughout history, marble has been utilised by the ancient Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians as a representation of durability, elegance, and luxury.

Marble is still used extensively in homes today for the same reasons, but in recent decades, it has become more widely available in a wide range of exquisite colours and shapes to fit every room in a house.

The various finishes

Natural marble may be used within anyplace in your house thanks to tumbled, honed/matt finish, and polished finish designs. Natural marble can be used for living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, hallways, and bathrooms. The beauty of natural marble may also be incorporated into splash-backs in kitchens, wet rooms, and walls thanks to the wide variety of shapes available.

The elegance of marble is undeniable, and genuine marble will always improve the atmosphere in your house. You can find a real marble range to complement whatever colour scheme you want to use.
