The Umang Stone International's marble tile collection features classic designs and patters along with some updated shapes and styles. Marble is derived from Latin word "Marmar" which comes from the Greek root "Marabous" meaning a shining stone. Marble is a nonaffiliated metamorphic rock resulting from the metamorphism of limestone. Commercially, marble is any crystalline rock composed predominantly of calcite, dolomite or serpentine, having 3-4 hardness, which can be excavated as blocks and can be sawn into marble slabs and marble tiles. Marble is used for wall cladding, roofing and flooring and a variety of other interior and exterior applications.
