Revamp With Marble, Complete With Fossils

Get The Most Unique Marble Possible

Did you know that there are no two marble slabs that are identical? While they can have similar veining and color schemes, they’re more like fingerprints. They’re unique from one another. If you want to put marble flooring, countertops, or other items into your home, you already know you’re going to get something unique. But if you want something that truly stands out, you might want to take it a step further. Consider marble with fossilized items within it for complete elegance and special appearances.

What Is Fossilized Marble?

Marble is a natural stone, but marble that has fossils in it includes things like plant life, shells, small invertebrates and other organic elements. These items are gaining popularity in beach-like homes, but they look good in various other locations as well. The inclusion of these fossils gives the home a visual experience that other marble can’t give.

Color Tones Available

Most of the marble stone that has fossilized matter in it comes in lighter tones. You will see it in light cream all the way through medium to dark beige. The neutral color patterns allow you to get a better look at the overall design and fossils within the stone. The lighter tones showcase the fossils in a brighter way and are often the better option if you want to highlight the patterns.

Application Versatility

In theory, you could use marble of this kind in any size or finish. A large polished tile in the light cream color can blend in well with a contemporary, elegant setting. You can also get something in darker beige to transition between traditional design elements. You could place marble, complete with fossils, in your home as flooring, countertops, walls, or outside your home as a stone walkway or landscape wall. There are endless places for this type of marble and the endless joy and beauty it will bring your home is worth looking into.

What Option Is Best?

Only you can decide what type of marble is the best fit for your home. All marble has both a historic and beautiful look, but this type of marble brings even more history to your home. It preserves certain shells, plants, and other forms of life into eternity and allows you to view them and enjoy them right in your own home. If you like the idea of something historic and preservative at the same time and you appreciate the overall look of the marble, it might be a good fit for you and your home.
