Indian and Italian Marble tiles:
When it comes to marble, you have two options that are immensely popular in Indian homes. Both Indian marble and Italian marble are amazing choices for your flooring or surface top needs. But how do you pick the right marble that’s perfect for your home and budget?
Indian marble: It comes in an astonishing array of colors such as white, pink, yellow, green, red and black. Some of the popular varieties include:
• Lustrous white Makrana marble (famously used in the Taj Mahal)
• High-quality white Ambaji marble from Gujarat
• The widely exported Indian green marble
• Onyx marble which gets its name from the thick bands of alternating color
Italian marble: Like its Indian counterpart, this comes in a variety of color and textures. Though there are a few varieties which are instantly recognizable, such as:
• The much valued Statuario marble which is characterised by its white color shot with grey or gold veins
• Golden hued Botticino marble which seems to be lit from within
• Light grey Carrera marble which features dispersed, fine, feathery veining
