Shoreditch Volakas

One of the Greek marbles that has now become very fashionable all over the world, at a time when the trend has moved towards white/grey coloured stones, is Volakas marble.

As is normal with natural stones, the marble comes in different varieties

The Volakas marble from different quarries tend to have different patterns and colours. The predominant colour, however, is white background with grey veins or of beige or brown. The veins can also be of ocre, or wine, or violet. The veins, moreover, can be thicker or also be thinner, within the same stone. In some varieties it is the background that is predominant, in other varieties it is the vein that differentiates the most.
