Admittedly white marble is eternally beautiful, but is it always an immaculate, flawless white piece of marble that is the popular choice for adorning modern homes? No, it’s not. More and more homeowners are inching towards exquisite patterns and vibrant veins. Beyond the flawless white marble, designers and homeowners alike are embracing the veins and patterns on white marble such as Cat’s Eye and Statuario.Indian white marble vs. Imported white marble
Indian marble such as Makrana white marble is hailed as superior – and why not, since it gave us wonders like Taj Mahal. However, they are now pretty common in Indian households. They don't catch the eye and often seem inconspicuous against the array of extraordinary imported marble. Moreover, sadly their authenticity is often questionable. Furthermore, the range of shades is limited as opposed to the world of shades of imported white marble. Since the marble’s place of origin doesn’t really factor into its properties, you can use imported white marble from any country to elevate your interiors.
