There are many uses for marble that have made it become one of the most sought after stones in the world. Because of its natural beauty, marble is mostly used for kitchen and bathroom countertops & tiles. However, marble, travertine and limestone are very porous stones that are very easily etched and stained. So you need to think about that if you wish to put it in your kitchen. Marble patterns come in a variety from soft and subtle to bold and beautiful. No matter the colour, style or variety you choose, incorporating marble into your next renovation project will transform the ordinary into the extraordinary.
