Marbles (hm Green)

it is a carbonatic rock of metamorphic origin and some ophiolitic rocks [serpentinites and ophicalcites], formed by the alteration of limestone or dolomite, often streaked. Best uses: entry walls, floors, fireplaces, vanities, shower walls, tub decks, furniture, sculptures and courtyards. Not recommended for kitchen counters because it can stain by fruit juices, alcohol products and scratch easily. Marble is an excellent choice as a pastry board because of its cold surface. Color ranges in whites, pinks, blues, and greens.
