Black Absolute Marble

Material Surface Finish Composite

Description

Due to the fact that black absolute marble is a quarried natural stone from Zimbabwe,

South Africa, it is sometimes referred to as black Zimbabwe marble. Like black African

marble, black absolute marble is really a form of granite. The compact and homogenous

grain as well as the remarkable hardness (greater than that of granite) are the defining

features of gabbros in general and black absolute marble in particular. Absolute black

marble has a uniformly dark background hue with dark gray dot patterns.

Why This Material Was Chosen ?

I have chosen this material as black absolute marble gives of an aesthetic and ornate look

as also gives the impression of quality and hardness of the material. Personally I think

this material finish can be applied to a verity of products and will give off an amazing

and present effect.
