In folklore, marble is associated with the
astrological sign of Gemini. Pure white is an emblem of purity. It is
also an emblem of immortality, and an insurer of success in
education.For its history, we must mention from the classical times, white marble
like Carrara, has been the prized use for sculpture with its softness
and resistance to shattering. With its low index of refraction of
calcite, light can penetrate several millimetres into the stone before being scattered out, resulting in the characteristic "waxy" look which gives "life" to marble sculptures
of the human body. Michelangelo created all his Renaissance sculptures
in marble; it was also the favorite medium for Greek and Roman sculptors
and architects.
Back to our reality, we are admired of its
beautiful effects. There are many types of marble, as well as the
finish, like the marble tiles, marble slabs,
honed marble, polished marble and so on. Thus, it is regarded as the
Design Versatility. Marble tiles are frequently used in bathrooms on
floors walls, shower recesses and vanity tops. In kitchens, marble is
used on floors, bench tops and splash backs. is commonly used for table
tops for both indoors and outdoors and has also been used fire hearths
and mantle pieces.
