MarbleMarble is a very attractive and durable material that can be used for many purposes around the home. A type of metamorphic rock, it develops from either limestone or dolostone into a variety of colors.Types of marble are often named after the quarries from which they came. Some notable types include: Carrara marble, Fauske, Macael, Makrana, Parian marble, Rouge de Rance, and Yule.

Historically, marble is an important element of classical sculpture. It was a preferred material for many Greek and Roman sculptors and architects. For this reason, use of marble has come to be a signifier of traditional, refined tastes. If you desire that appearance as part of your home decor but have no interest in purchasing a full marble effect, consider an item that makes use of faux marbling. Cultured marble is another option which is less expensive but can have more tensile strength.
