"In the heart of the Apuan Alps, the cradle of the world's marble, lies the Carrara quarry. It covers an area of over 130,000 square metres and is one of the most important quarrying sites in the world."
The world's finest marbles, such as Bianco Carrara, Bianco Venato and Bardiglio Nuvolato, are extracted here. Bianco Carrara, in particular, is a pure, luminous white marble that has been used for centuries to create world-famous works of art and architecture.
