SELECTING & PURCHASING

Cultured Marble

Also called "man-made marble", it is cast in an open-faced mold out of the prepared mixture. This mixture mainly consists of crushed and ground white quarried marble with a polyester resin, a catalyst, to help the material harden. Then desired color pigment is added. When the hardened marble product is taken off the mold it, can be buffed to high a gloss or given a satin finish.
