Marble

Marble is a popular natural stone known for its beautiful appearance, variety of patterns, and rich colors. It is a metamorphic rock formed from limestone over millions of years under heat and pressure. Due to this process, marble becomes smooth and shiny after cutting. This stone comes in a wide range of colors, including white, black, gray, green, pink, red, and mixed shades, making it an ideal choice for different architectural styles.

Although marble is softer than granite, with proper care, it remains strong and long-lasting. Sealing the surface helps protect it from stains and scratches, especially in high-traffic areas like kitchens, hallways, and public spaces. Additionally, marble naturally stays cool, making it a great option for warm climates.
