First, the surface quality of raw materials. In general, the marble materials have fine structure and delicate texture as good stone carving raw materials. The marble of coarse and unequal grain structure has a poor appearance, has low cost while being unsuitable for high quality custom sculptures. In addition, marble carvings often produce some fine cracks due to the influence of geological effects. Marble statue are most likely to break along these parts, and should be removed. As for the lack of edges and corners, it is more affecting the appearance, especially when choosing the size specification of the marble statue.

Furthermore, use a simple test method to check the quality of the indoor marble statue. Usually, a small drop of ink is dripped on the back of the marble statue. If the ink is scattered and leached everywhere, it means that the inside of the marble statue is loose or there is a gap, and the quality of the marble statue is not good. On the contrary, if the ink is not moved in place, the marble statue texture is good.

Second, tell the difference of sculpture by listening to the sound of the marble stone carving. In general, a good quality decorative marble statue has a crisp sound; in contrast, if there is a slight crack inside the stone or if the contact between the particles becomes loose due to weathering, the knocking sound is rough.
