Pink Marble from Loch Slapin

Most Skye marble is white, grey or green, so pink tones stand out. This stone comes from Torrin, a village on Loch Slapin with Bla Bheinn on the skyline, where ancient Durness limestone was turned to marble by granite heat around 54 million years ago. The limestone itself is roughly 500 million years old, and each stone's tint is natural, so it varies from piece to piece. Pale pink gives a soft look, dark pink a stronger colour, and speckled sits somewhere between.

Collection Information

Skye Marble is predominantly white, grey and black, with some green and yellow tones, and occasional hints of gold, blue and orange making fascinating markings and striations.

Marble from the Isle of Skye is a rare and beautiful type of metamorphic rock. It is primarily composed of limestone that has undergone metamorphism, often incorporating striking veins of white, green or blue hues due to mineral impurities such as serpentine. This gives it a distinctive appearance similar to Italian marble.

It has a number of uses, including as a decorative building material in churches and historic buildings, and in jewellery. It was used to build Armadale Castle in Skye and Iona Abbey, on the nearby island of Iona.

Isle of Skye Marble is not widely quarried today, but some small-scale extraction has taken place over the centuries.
