Marble is outdated and heavy? Far from it! The new trendy materials with their marble aspect offer the possibility to enrich your own walls with this classic material of the Italian palazzi or Greek palaces. Marble always looks very noble and grants you an elegant ambiente. An example is our eye-catcher, the JVD HC21.2 wall clock with its marble dial.
The tradition and usage of marble
Marble (luminous and shiny) is a carbonate rock, consisting of materials such as calcite, dolomite and aragonite.
There are many meanings for the word “marble”: petrographic is a metamorphic rock, born out of the transformation (metamorphosis) of limestone and other rocks rich in carbonate, in the Earth’s interior through heat and pressure. Beside the petrographic meaning we can distinguish the cultural meaning and the economical meaning of the marble. A great deal of important building and masterpiece are made of marble. Marbles are used for floor and stairs coverings, table tops, wall tiles, sinks and cladding panels. The millennial production of marble is today still a laborious and time-consuming process.
The usage of marble in our homes is still a modern practice today. If you want to confer your walls with elegance and individuality, the most appropriate thing would be natural stone tiles. These offer you infinite possibilities: no matter if as floor tiles on the wall or as unique eye-catcher in the apartment as marble stone or only in the look of marble, they are always perfect for it.

We provide an eye-catcher: our JVD HC21.2 marble-looking wall clock.
This 30 cm long wall clock features a black plastic case with a POM frame. The hands, baton markers and the four Arabic numerals (12, 3, 6, 9), too, are in a simple black. The background of the dials presents an elegant white and grey marble.

For a darker taste we can suggest our JVD HC21.1. This clock is the same as the other one but differs from it for its case colour, which is silver, as well for its marble colour, black and grey in this case.
