Marble is one of the most beautiful stones that exist and it will put a touch of elagance in any decor. Marble is a metamorphic rock derived from limestone, existing in a wide variety of colours, which may represent veins, or marbling (the veins and colours are most often caused by metallic oxide inclusions). Used during the ancient Greek and Roman times and in the Middle Ages, marble has always had an aura of prestige, exclusivity and luxury. Care and Maintenance of Marble
A very large selection of granite is available in a wide range of colours and textures. It is essential to be well advised by our experts when you choose this option, because the quality varies greatly from one stone to another. A noble material used worldwide in the fabrication of monuments, paving or curbs, granite has been used since the 1980s for ornamental purposes, including kitchens and bathrooms. Granite comes from the earth, so each piece is unique. This helps to give an exclusive look to any project. It is actually a very solid rock which is composed of quartz crystal, mica and feldspar. An interesting advantage of granite is that it is resistant to scratches and heat. Care and Maintenance of Granite
