MEXICAN PICASSO MARBLE
Though commonly referred to as jasper, this marble mineral is actually marble transformed through the process of limestone metamorphism. Its primary composition comprises varying proportions of silica, calcium carbonate, and magnesium. These elements give Picasso marble its distinctive structure, characterized by patterns created by iron oxides intertwining to form dynamic lines and veins.

The color variations of Picasso marble are equally fascinating, offering a diverse palette of grays accentuated by streaks, markings, and spots. Within this chromatic range, one discovers shades of blue, beige, brown, black, maroon, yellow, greenish, violet, and white, creating a captivating visual symphony.
