Marble is known for its qualities such as durability, ease of maintenance, resistance to bad weather, and an incredibly amazing collection.
However, there are a few other properties that will help you choose it for your next renovation project.
Because of its density and durability, marble is also hypoallergenic. Therefore, it is a popular choice for people with allergies or for families with young children.
Marble is heat-resistant, it does not quickly absorb heat or energy and is quite suitable for countries with hot climates. This is one of the reasons why this amazing stone is so common in the Mediterranean countries and in India.
There are no two marble slabs with the same pattern. This makes the stone so unique, but it also means that you need to pay more attention when choosing floor or wall tiles and always order from the same batch.
Marble can be the base rock for corundum, spinel, and other precious minerals, even rubies. An interesting example of white marble with a large red ruby has been found in Afghanistan.
When marble is cut into blocks and slabs of a certain size, it is called "dimensional stone".
As you can see, marble has amazing visible and hidden features and uses and can be a part of our daily lives in many forms. We can really describe it as one of the wonders of Mother nature.
