    Is it true that Italian marble and furniture are famous worldwide? Are French chandeliers famous worldwide?

    Question #99743. Asked by armindasantana. (Sep 27 08 4:37 PM)

    		Italian marble, especially that from Carrara, is indeed internationally renowned.

    Italian furniture is exported around the world, but is not as dominant a force as is the case for the marble - different tastes may lead to preferences for other styles of furniture - French, English, Scandinavian, etc.

    The 'best' chandeliers are considered to be those made from Bohemian and Baccarat crystal. Bohemian crystal is made in Bohemia and Silesia; Baccarat is in the Lorrain region of France.
