Marble

* The colour of the samples may differ from their natural colour depending on the display setting.

This widely appreciated stone is a type of limestone which has crystalline structure with addition of other elements. The characteristic snow-white colour of the limestone comes to the fore while additions of other chemical compounds produce different ”coloured” varieties of the basic theme. For example, metal oxides give marble a yellow, brown or reddish colour; graphite, coal and bitumen make it grey or black; and chlorite gives it a characteristic green colour.

Marble is rightfully one of the most popular types of stone used in construction and decoration of spaces, and these are its advantages:

• easy to cut, process and polish
• durable material (it is most commonly composed of firm calcite and dolomite) that can easily be adapted to different requirements in construction
• it provides more options – more colours and decorative patterns to suit all tastes
• versatile material which can be used for various purposes
• very good solution for floors

In Croatia marble is found near Sinj, Split and Dubrovnik, on the island of Brač and in Istria.
