caution when buying marble
VN has wonderful marble cutters. They make everything from small knick knacks to immense fountains.We purchased marble animals for our garden. After bargaining for a good price we reached an agreement that included shipping to our home port. What we doidn't know was that the shipping company also charged us for variious handling fees on our end that almost doubled the orice of what we bought (making it definiately more than it was worth to us)

All told, including shipping, a full service for 8 with 4 sizes of plates and two sizes of bowls plus many serving pieces cost me about US$600. It was all custom-made to my order and it's gorgeous. I thought that at that price it was a bargain.
