Marble is a gorgeous stone and one of the oldest stones used in construction and has been in use since centuries now. Marble was first mined in the 1st century in history and the use of marble can be traced back to the temples of Olympia and the Theseum in Greece.<\/p>\n
Over time, the use of marble has evolved from making hand held sculptures and massive pillars to use on walls and floors. The opulence that marble exudes makes it one of the top trending looks even today. The subtle veined surface makes it a great addition to any space.<\/p>\n
But,\u00a0natural marble comes with a lot of drawbacks<\/strong>:<\/p>\n
\n
Proper care and maintenance of marble is required to maintain its beauty. It should be polished regularly to give it a stunning look and prevent it from yellowing over time.<\/li>\n
It is also prone to cracking and should be treated with proper resins to prevent further damage.<\/li>\n
Since natural marble is also highly prone to staining, it is not suitable for use in areas that see a lot of spills, such as kitchens and dining rooms.<\/li>\n
Marble is available in big slabs and requires a lot of work for installation.<\/li>\n
There is also a lot of wastage when slabs are cut to fit into smaller areas.<\/li>\n
The porosity of marble makes it prone to all kinds of water damage making it unsuitable for use in wet areas such as kitchens, and bathrooms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
