    • About marble slabs from Turkey

    Marble is a metamorphic rock: limestone or dolostone that was recrystallised by heat and pressure deep in the earth. This gives it a crystalline body, depth of colour and the veining every slab is known for.

    Develi Marble cuts its marble blocks on its own gangsaw line, processes them on its resin and polishing lines, and photographs every bundle in the yard — so each stone page shows real stock.
