But what exactly is marble?
Marble is a carbonate rock made up of the minerals calcite, dolomite, or aragonite. There are different meanings of the word marble: in petrographic terms, it is a metamorphic rock formed by the transformation (metamorphosis) of limestone and other carbonate-rich rocks, deep within the Earth through heat and pressure. In addition to the petrographic term, cultural and economic meanings of marble can also be distinguished. A number of significant buildings and works of art are made of marble. Marble is used for floor and stair coverings, tabletops, wall tiles, washbasins, and façade panels. The extraction of marble, which has been carried out for thousands of years, is still a laborious and time-consuming process today.
Even today, using marble in your own living spaces is still very much in style. To give walls a special elegance and individuality, natural stone tiles are a proven solution. Here, almost limitless possibilities open up for you: whether as floor tiles, on the wall, or for individual eye-catchers in the home as marble stone or simply in marble look, it is very well suited.
