Guest Picks: It's Marble-ous!

I know a lot of people who love marble; they think it has a certain delicate glamour that only a fine natural material can have. But I also know some other people who despise marble. They think of it as an old-fashioned, cold and boring material. Despite the contrasting opintions, marble is trending. You can find it everywhere and for every kind of product, from floors and finishes to objects and textiles (yes, textiles). Check out this collection of 20 marble-inspired products and then tell me the truth: Which type of marble person are you? — Eleni from My Paradissi

Fort Standard Marble Nonagon Trivet - $84 Geometric shapes are also trending, so this nonagon marble trivet is probably the hippest product on this list. Even if it's not, it still looks cool.
