A tile made of hard limestone. It is installed by setting the tile (usually 6"x 6" to 12" x 12") in a cement bed. The cement bed is usually between 2" and 3" thick. The marble is finished by either rubbing or smoothing. The smoothing process involves grinding the tiles to a smooth finish, then polishing.
Consider the following when selecting a quality:
Color: Products with natural coloring (e.g., red brick and quarry tile) are low quality, while products with unusual natural or man-made color characteristics (e.g., green slate) are high quality.
Installation Pattern: The common bond pattern is the least labor intensive, with the herringbone pattern being more intensive, and the diamond pattern being the most intensive; quality increases as labor intensity increases.
