Webb, Limited
First name: Percy C.
Active: 1921 -
Function: Marble and granite merchants and workers
Policy: 'Rosso Antico' - the red marble of the ancient Greeks and Romans. This is the marble which was largely used in classical times. We have secured the entire remaining stick of blocks from quarries, which were re-discovered some time ago but are now nolonger worked. After this stock is exhausted, this marble will not be obtsainable. A deep rich red, with a few veins of white and purple. The (underlined) house for Marble: large stocks always of white and coloured marbles. Craftsmen as well, with well-equipped works and a capable staff.'
