Stone used in sculpture (6)

I believe the answer is:

marble

(Other definitions for marble that I've seen before include "Ornamental stone" , "Child's small glass ball" , "Hard crystalline limestone used for sculpture" , "Polished rock used in sculpture" , "Hard limestone that takes a high polish" .)

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