A Marble Milestone

For generations, marble has captivated the world. From the grand sculptures of classical antiquity to the polished interiors of modern luxury homes, this noble stone has stood as a symbol of elegance, permanence and timeless beauty. At Foras, we’ve spent years sourcing and importing the finest natural stone from across the globe and building a reputation for quality craftsmanship. Today, we’re thrilled to share an evolution of that legacy with our new Molten collection: a stunning range of marble water features that marks a significant milestone in our journey.

A New Chapter in Stone

For years, we’ve been your trusted supplier of premium sandstone and slate water features. These pieces have graced countless gardens, patios and outdoor spaces, bringing beauty to homes everywhere. But as our passion for stone has deepened, so too has our vision. We asked ourselves: what if we could take the artistry and innovation we’ve perfected in sandstone and reimagine it in marble?

The answer is Molten: a collection born from the transformation of limestone into marble through intense heat – the name literally captures this evolution. The Molten collection features three magnificent marble finishes, available across three beautifully designed shapes.

The Molten collection features magnificent marble finishes available across three beautifully designed shapes…

THE PURE

 

Our statement piece – a commanding 75cm bowl that creates a striking focal point in any garden. Just like our original Pure bowls in sandstone, it is available in three stunning marble finishes:

Jade – showcases rich, deep green tones, creating a sense of tranquility and connection to the natural world.
Shoreline Grey – brings contemporary elegance to outdoor spaces. Clean and refined with subtle grey veining, this marble complements modern architecture.
Obsidian White – offers fresh, understated sophistication. Subtle natural veining adds depth and light, capturing the timeless elegance of classic marble.

The evolution of an icon—the Pure marble bowl.

 

THE CASCARA

Our marble interpretation of the beloved sandstone Balmoral bowls – the same timeless design that has graced gardens for years. Also available in Jade, Shoreline Grey and Obsidian White, the Cascara is elevated on a natural slate plinth.

THE BELMONT

The same iconic sphere shape that has defined our sandstone water features for years, now crafted in luxurious marble. Available in Jade, Shoreline Grey, Obsidian White, and Shoreline Grey Etched – which provides a more textured interpretation. The Belmont sphere offers a bold, sculptural presence, perfect for contemporary gardens or anyone seeking to elevate the signature design they already know and love.

Matt Finishes & Optional Lighting

All pieces feature our signature matt stone texture, celebrating the natural character of the marble while providing a sophisticated, contemporary feel that avoids the sometimes clinical appearance of polished stone. For added ambiance, every feature in the Molten collection can be enhanced with optional warm lighting, creating a magical focal point as daylight fades.
