Personally, I am always moved when

I enter a palace, stroll through a

square, or admire a cathedral and

recognise the marbles that adorn

it: the famous Carrara Marble in the

Venaria Reale and the Cathedral of

Pisa, the Verona Red Marble used

in the construction of the Arena di

Verona and the Basilica of San Zeno

Maggiore in our beautiful city The

Arabescato Cipollino Marble that

enriches the Basilica of San Marco in

Venice. The Numidian Yellow Marble

used in Roman times to build the

Colosseum in Rome and the Arch of

Constantine. The famous Staircase of

the Royal Palace of Caserta consisting

of 116 steps of Trapani marble. The

intrinsic nobility of marble, and

natural stones in general, lies in their

uniqueness. And in their ability to

maintain their beauty over time in any

design project, classic or modern.

In this issue of ML World, we reveal

the rare marbles from the Marmi

Lanza selection and how to create

a marble design lamp with our cut-

to-size service. We look far ahead

to the future cities emerging like

contemporary cathedrals in the

desert, where marble returns to centre

stage. Between ref lections of the past

and glimpses of the future
