Botticino Classico Marble Blocks Italy Beige Marble

Marble Botticino Classico is a fine natural stone with a beige colour and many golden veins, formed more than 60 million years ago from the slow process of sedimentation, cementation and recrystallisation of calcareous muds, rich in organisms; these, fossilized, now represent one of the peculiar characteristics of this type of marble. Marble Botticino is a quality known all over the world since ancient times, it was already used by the Romans in the 1st century BC in the construction of capitals in forums. In more recent times Botticino classico has been used, combined with Botticino Semiclassico, in the construction of symbolic buildings and monuments, such as the Altare della Patria in Rome, the white house in Washington, the Statue of Liberty and Central Station in New York.
