Marble Rectangular Troughs

Marble Rectangular Troughs. These troughs tend to be oblong/square shaped in a grey/white colour. Their style and colour lends themeselves to a modern garden, as well as a traditional design. Often they are 'decorated' on the sides and some have tethering holes where the animals were tied to feed.  Marble is formed from limestone with heat and pressure over the years in the earth's crust.  The pressure or force causes the limestone to change in texture and makeup, the process is called recrystallization.  Fossilised materials in the limestone, along with its original carbonate minerals, recrystallize and form large, coarse grains of calcite.

The minerals that result from impurities give marble a wide variety of colours.  The purest calcite marble is white in colour, marble containing hematite is reddish in colour, marble that has limonite is yellow and marble with serpentine is green in colour.
