    E
    legant at a doorway , decorating your home  or garden with  marble  .
    The  marble have been  stored for over 50 years in my parent's yard and have withstood weather but in need of cleaning and  polishing. When cleaned they will once again be grand.
    This  group of  marble  are part of this Southern Antique collector's possessions as an art piece although it was once put to practical where it once stood . Then as the old home was destroyed this collector carefully salvaged the   tiles and stored in for more than half of a century. Some  of this marble was  used in his own home as you can see  from photos.
    The  1966 Newspaper article said."Maybe the collector didn’t even remember where it was stored or why he had saved it all those years. Maybe just because he liked it , with no use in mind. But the fact remains that, in depths of the Great Depression when the decorative features of razed residences might be had, at least, for carting them away at most, for a song."
    Marble  of this type were popular with upscale 19th-  Century Architects and were used to grace the mansions and elaborate  grounds  during the last half of the Century. These  tiles with old patina that remains to the surface , whether it may have been made in America or imported for a southern residence, it is a handsome Architectural accent .
    What an elegant way to add an authentic Victorian flavor to your property. Whether you are  remodeling, or even starting new construction.
    The  marble can be picked up locally in  MONTGOMERY ALABAMA
