Marble has been synonymous with luxury and elegance for millennia. From ancient Greek temples to contemporary minimalist interiors, marble's timeless beauty is unmatched.
How is Marble Formed?
Marble begins as limestone or dolomite. Under extreme heat and pressure deep within the earth, these rocks undergo a transformation called metamorphism, recrystallizing into the dense, beautiful stone we call marble. This process creates the distinctive veining patterns that make each slab unique. For a scientific overview, Wikipedia's marble entry explains the geological formation in detail.
