The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

The Lion of St Mark is the historical symbol of the Republic of Venice, representing Mark the Evangelist. In classical architectural reliefs, the winged lion often holds an open book during times of peace or a raised sword during times of war.

Sienna marble is quarried in Tuscany, Italy, and is identified by its warm yellow to ochre tones, often featuring darker veining and natural tonal variations. It has been favoured since antiquity and the Renaissance period for decorative carving and architectural accents.

Authentic antique marble reliefs display natural surface patination, subtle hand-carving marks, and slight edge wear consistent with age. Modern reproductions often use resin composites or machine tooling, which lack the hand-carved depth and stone grain of genuine carved marble.

Carved stone reliefs can be mounted directly onto focal walls, displayed on picture ledges, or placed on custom metal stands within shelving units. Their tactile texture and historic motifs create contrast against smooth, modern wall surfaces.

Antique marble panels should be dusted regularly with a soft, dry brush or microfibre cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, acidic liquids, or abrasive tools, using only pH-neutral stone cleaner diluted in warm water if gentle cleaning is required.
