Geologically, marble refers to certain crystalline rocks composed primarily of calcite or dolomite-metamorphosed limestone. In the stone and construction industry the term "marble" refers to any rock that can take a high polish. This even includes a few limestone's and granites.

The purest from is "White Statuary Marble", best exemplified by product mined in the Carrera area of Italy. Commonly found marbles contain various impurities which produce a whole spectrum of patterns and colours. Because it is softer than most other construction stones, marble can be worked more easily and is used mainly for ornamentation.

Marble is available in a wide range of colour options. It is ideal for fireplace surrounds, bar-tops, vanities, and specialty products like conference or coffee tables. The popular stone has been used throughout the ages due to stunning natural patterns and colours. Marble is a relatively hard material, but not as hard as granite, so it might require a little more maintenance.
