Elastic Marble and Flexible Stone Reported in Europe
A Brooklyn Eagle item describes elastic slabs of marble once owned by Prince Borghese in Rome. They bend when stood on end and form curves when laid under a support, with traces of fire damage. Similar polished slabs were shown at the British Museum for 25 years. Elsewhere, M Fleuvian de Belvae made granular limestone elastic by heat, and Lincoln Cathedral features an elastic white marble arch that yields to heavy tread and springs back.
