Carrara, Calacatta and Statuario: Differentiating Between Types of Italian Marble Countertops

September 04, 2012
Derived from a Greek word that means "to sparkle, flash and gleam," marble is undoubtedly one of the most luxurious materials in the world. And although marble is extracted from quarries all over the globe, some of the most precious varieties of marble are found in Italy. The most popular Italian marble varieties are carrara, calacatta and statuario. To the untrained eye, these stones may all look like the same type of white marble. Confusion is also added because calacatta is quarried in Carrara, Italy.

Neolith For Fireplace Surrounds

August 14, 2012
Ever since the days of old, people have had a love affair with granite. It symbolizes strength, character and permanence. Homes, castles, even precious temples have been made of granite over the past two millenniums.
Neolith Fireplace
Small wonder a material has been made to not only imitate it, but to also outlast it. Neolith by TheSize is an incredible example of taking something from nature and making it better. TheSize gathers together the materials and magically combines them. The end result is a material as pretty as granite and with strength and durability.

This material, used as a surround for fireplace finishes, not only brings attention to itself, but also frames the whole structure in a seamless, deep shine. Whether for faux fireplaces, gas, wood or other types, Neolith is perfect for the job. Because of its coating, smoke buildup from a wood fire may easily be wiped away. Scorching is no longer a problem on the fireplace finishes for the mantel, wall or apron.

Fireplace finishes give the feeling of warmth, comfort and security. This is true even for the decorative ones. If nothing more than a candle burns in one, a fireplace will still give the room and household a homey feel. It is welcoming and beckons you to sit nearby.

Some believe that Neolith may be out of reach financially. However, due to its ability to be made in an incredibly thin layer, installation is a breeze. This makes fewer hours of work for a crew and makes Neolith a lot more affordable than other finishes. This is a very light material and easily managed by the crew to carry and install it.

And, nothing need be removed, as you can have the fireplace finishes placed directly on top of a wall. This saves time, dust and money. So take a look at our website and see what color scheme you would like. We have an array of choices, within your budget!

We are happy to help you choose not only the material, but also the fabricator and installer. Drop by for a visit, give us a call or send us an email, it’s up to you. We are here for you in any manner at Marble and Granite.
