“He is looking into the future – what is he going to do, as he grows up, what will his career be?”

Like teenagers everywhere, what the prospects the future holds are foremost in the minds of many in Zimbabwe, but with the added challenges that the current economic and political situation presents.

This white marble is a very hard crystalline stone composed mainly of dolomite mineral. It looks fantastic in sunlight, as the multitude of crystal facets catch the light and sparkle. This stone is identical to the marble from the Dolomites in Italy, but is mined in Zimbabwe.
