Marble is formed from granular limestone that has been recrystallized under the influence of heat pressure and aqueous solutions.  Commercially the term marble includes all calcium rich rocks, which can be polished.  Beautiful veined marbles are formed when earth movements shatter the rock, producing fissures that are afterwards filled with veins of calcite.  It is an intensely hard substance, which will undergo little wear over a period of several hundred years.

We stock many other stones, which we can source, manufacture and fit as required.
