The History of French Marble
French marble has been used for thousands of years. And has been a prized decorative material ever since the Romans first discovered their exceptional beauty. From this point, these natural stones quarried in the French Hautes-Pyrénées mountains have been highly coveted as a means of conveying luxury. These beautiful French marbles include Noir St. Laurent, Rosso Francia, Grand Antique and Saroncolin.
These iconic French marbles have been used in some of Europe’s finest castles, churches and cathedrals. Most notably it is extensively used in the Palace of Versailles1 which was built for King Louis XIV2. By choosing a French marble dining table in any of these iconic marbles you will own a material which has for centuries maintained both its value and supreme beauty.
