Marmara Equator marble is very unique natural stone. It features throughout linear veining of white and grey colour tones. It is quarried in Turkey. Those quarries are Turkey’s oldest and deepest marble quarries, for instance.
Even though it has similar strip structure there is a quality difference between blocks. Above all, SpaceStone recommends to consider following two elements to find 1st class marble selection:
- Smoothness of successive gray veins
- Clearness between the veins
The fluctuations of the veins in the plaques decreases quality of the marble. We always choose A class marble selection for villa, hotel, business centre, hospital and other public projects.
In fact, Marmara marble contains high ratio of sulfur mineral. That’s why Ottoman architects used this marble in Turkish bath (hammam) and other many wet areas in order to prevent bacteria reproduction.
