3773 Calcata

[FONT="Book Antiqua"][SIZE="3"]Hi

Anyone been there?Its about 40 mins north of Rome and is a village where lots of artists and craftsmen live and have galleries?

Is it just really touristy or genuine?

There is a very famous and beautiful marble called Calacata, or Calacatta - probably comes from the same place, so it would be a Mecca for artists and sculptors. Here is a snap of a piece of calacata used as a wall cladding.

Having checked on the stone it isn't from here - it comes from Carrara, and is a variety of that - sorry for misinformtaion!!
