Information About Bonded Marble
Bonded (cast) Carrara marble items are made by
mixing crushed Carrara (a marble found in Italy) with a bonding agent and
pouring into a mold. The items produced are bright white, but are generally
not as smooth as carved marble and do not have a grain. As
bonded marble ages, it will acquire a slight golden-brown hue or patina, just as
carved marble would. Additionally,
like carved marble, bonded marble can be polished to a gloss with a buffing wax
such as clear carnauba.
Items
made from bonded marble can be displayed outside year-round in any climate.
Bonded
marble can be cleaned with a brush and a solution of bleach and water.
