Then, in order to attain the perfect colour, the marble is sponged with required colours. A detailed outline of the drawing is etched out of marble piece. The process that follows is of adding colours and at times gold leaves, gold dust, lacquers and jewels. The colours that are used for marble painting are made out of mineral dyes and natural vegetable. The use of precious stones and gold is optional and entirely depends on the buyers and manufacturers (if the item happens to be made of order items). The use of lacquer actually adds a enduring finish to the marble painting and enhances its life value.
