Planters and Urns
Limestone became popular in the 19th century for use as garden ornaments. The popularity of limestone can be attributed to the similarities in appearance to marble, but comparatively low cost. Limestone was more malleable, and abundant; thus less expensive than marble statuary. Limestone is the un-crystallized form of marble and is highly porous. Composed of calcium carbonate, which is soluble in water. Limestone is particularly susceptible to the elements.
