White marble (Hanbai Jade) Introduction

Shanghai Jiani Material Technology Co., Ltd. is a professional company specializing in the production of stone tiles.

White marble (Hanbai Jade) is mainly composed of calcium carbonate, a chemical compound with the chemical formula CaCO₃. It is practically insoluble in water. It exists in various forms including aragonite, calcite, chalk, limestone, marble and travertine, and can be found in rock formations. It is also the main component of animal shells and snail shells, as well as an important building material.

White marble features a hard, pure white texture with faint water-like veins spreading across the stone, commonly known as sweat lines — hence the name Hanbai Jade.

In daily life, we often see marble with elegant tones, clear textures and beautiful patterns. It is widely used for wall decoration, tabletop production, and making various stationery and craftworks. The balustrades around the platforms of major halls in the Palace Museum of Beijing are all made of pure white marble, which is known as Hanbai Jade.

Hanbai Jade is a kind of crystal-clear pure white marble. It is spotlessly white and pristine, containing sparkling crystalline grains, presenting an immaculate, solemn and dignified aesthetic. Its output accounts for about 30% of the total marble production, and it is mostly used for carving statues of figures, Buddha statues, plants and animals.
