A marble light is a light fixture made of marble.
Yes and no. Kidney stones feel as big as a marble. But if you swallow a marble it will come out a different way
You can get marble from a quarry or a stone merchant, you can also sometimes find marble tiles at a tile and ceramic shop.
How do I get scratches out of a marble table top?
Go to any place that sells marble and they will sell you a product to use on your marble table top.
A marble's cleavage refers to how the marble breaks or fractures along certain planes. Marble has a tendency to break along flat planes due to its crystalline structure, creating smooth surfaces when separated. Cleavage is used by geologists to help identify and classify different types of rocks and minerals.
Limestone and marble are primarily composed of calcite, a mineral that reacts with acid by producing bubbles. This reaction is commonly used to identify these rocks in the field.
No. A marble is made of glass, not marble. Glass will not react with vinegar. Edit - Some antique marbles ARE crafted out of marble or other stone/ rock types. Using ANY sort of chemical to clean them can possibly damage the surface finish or even worse, cause the marble to break or split. I happen to own a few antique marbles from the 1880's to the early 1900's. To clean them use a damp, warm soft cloth. Try checking each marble by carefully rubbing a small portion of a marble before cleaning the entire marble(some marbles are sun hardened clay, and getting one wet can damage them). One other method to identify the material your marble(s) are made out of - try a local rock shop. Most rock shop owners can identify what your marble is made from, if it is a naturally occurring rock. They might even be able to provide the possible value of your marble(s), but you should ALWAYS get a second opinion for any value appraisals.

Variety means the state of being different. For example, if you have a blue marble, a black marble, a white marble, a purple marble, a red marble, and green marble, you would say you have a variety of marbles.
Seismic reflection surveying is a commonly used geophysical method for subsurface marble exploration. By sending sound waves into the ground and recording their reflections, this method can help identify different rock layers, including marble, based on their acoustic properties. Other methods like ground-penetrating radar can also be used to locate marble deposits by detecting variations in subsurface materials.
Variety means the state of being different. For example, if you have a blue marble, a black marble, a white marble, a purple marble, a red marble, and green marble, you would say you have a variety of marbles.
The marble used in Marble Arch, in London, dates back to 1827 when the arch was erected. So the marble is over 190 years old.
