ABOUT MARBLE.
Marble is a product of nature, the result of millions of tons of pressure over millions of years compacting the calcium remains of tiny sea creatures. Variation of color and texture, and minor "imperfections" are natural and normal.

The compressed calcium crystals randomly refract and reflect light, giving solid marble its unique luminescent characteristic. Neither poured stone, granite, nor limestone produce a similar effect.

The natural color variations of marble make each ornament unique, as well as an object of beauty and art.

OUR MARBLE IS SOLID MARBLE.
We sell solid, hand-carved marble ornaments. We do not deal in poured concrete, powdered stone dust mixes, or resins. Unfortunately there are retailers and websites portraying their product as "solid marble", but it is not.

Test #1. All solid marble weighs about the same. Be sure you are comparing oranges to oranges, marble to marble. Use the weight of our objects as a guide.

Test #2. Solid marble needs no cover in the winter. Enjoy solid marble ornaments outdoors year round.

OUR MARBLE IS MADE IN CHINA
Our workshop in China has achieved a very high standard, "very good" on our demanding scale. Marble Styles offers very good quality (our clients have said "excellent") marble ornaments at reasonable and competitive prices.

China has a marble carving tradition that dates back a 1,000 years. Today, China marble is an excellent value.

There are retail outlets and websites that portray their products as "Made in Italy" but in fact are made in China, India, or Pakistan. We are very pleased to say that we offer quality products "Made in China".

In our view, only the marble work from Italy rates an "excellent", but the costs are at least twice more. If you are interested in Carrara, Italy production, please visit our sister company, Marble Gardens (marblegardens.com).
