There's one just down the road from me and one dark night it'll be all mine...:evil

Just kidding ( of course )

But I don't know where you can get modern ones... I'm guessing you'll have to make it, have it made or find an antique...

You can get marble cut into just about any shape if you got the money! What would a period one be from? I'm not up on geology of stones in Northern Europe!

I don't remember seeing anything that looked like marble when I was in Ireland. I do have small tourist item blarney stone which looks to be some sort of greenish yellow quartz composite, though. Everything seemed to be blackish looking rock which crumbled easily.
