DEFINING MARBLE
In geology, marble is a metamorphic rock derived from limestone and mainly composed of calcite crystals. Marbles exhibit a wide variety of colors, although the base color of calcite is white. They often contain veins called marblings. The veins and colors are generally due to inclusions of metallic oxides.
A BIT OF HISTORY
Since ancient times, the use of marble has been linked to art and the will of men. It is indeed a rare, heavy, fragile, and precious material that only masters know how to work. “Invented” by ancient Greece and first carved into rigid funerary idols by the Cycladic Civilization, it was then used in massive blocks for prestigious religious (statues of deities, temples, tombs) or political (stadiums) architectural achievements.
