Fine white stone used for statues and vases (9)

I believe the answer is:

alabaster

(Other definitions for alabaster that I've seen before include "White ornamental stone" , "Stab a real odd white mineral" , "Blast area for white mineral" , "Stone often used for carving" , "Translucent white gypsum as found carved into ornaments" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
