The Marble Brazier is the grandest of the decorative fire bowls sold at the Carpenter's Shop. It burns with an open flame and lights the tiles around it. Its recipe is the most expensive of all the brazier recipes Robin sells, and its materials take a little digging to gather. Braziers sit between plain Torches and electric lamp-posts, giving more light than a Torch with a more decorative look than a lamp. The marble finish suits crystal, ice and stone themes better than the wooden and rustic braziers.
Recipe
Robin sells the recipe at the Carpenter's Shop, where all the brazier recipes are found.
Crafting a piece of Marble with an Aquamarine and a large pile of Stone makes one Marble Brazier. The Marble is the hardest part. It only comes out of Frozen Geodes and Omni Geodes, so it can take a good number of geodes before one appears. Aquamarine is easier, since Aquamarine nodes and gem nodes appear from floor 40 of the Mines downward. Stone comes from breaking rocks almost anywhere.
A hundred pieces of Stone is the largest material bill in the family, though one determined trip through the Mines with a good Pickaxe settles it. The geodes are the real wait. They give nothing up until they are cracked open, so a farm already opening Frozen Geodes for Gunther's collection will find the Marble and the Aquamarine along the way rather than hunting for them twice.
These are the ingredients one batch needs.

Use
A placed brazier can be lit or put out by interacting with it. That makes it a handy light for a spot that only needs it some of the time, such as a seating area by the pond. When burning, it casts a moderate glow, brighter than a Torch but softer than a lamp-post.
The reach is about seven tiles, the same as every other brazier in the range. The gold buys the finish, not the brightness. For a path that has to be lit every single night, the Wood Lamp-post and the Iron Lamp-post are the better buy, since they shine further and come on without being asked. The marble belongs where it is meant to be looked at.

Notes
Each brazier has its own style, so the choice is mostly about looks rather than light. The Marble Brazier fits best beside other cool-toned decorations such as the Small Crystal, the Icy Banner and the Singing Stone. A pair on either side of a path or a doorway gives a formal, stately look.
The Singing Stone is an easy partner for it. Gunther hands that out for donations to the Museum, so a farm that has worked its way through the collection usually has the pieces for a pale, cool corner sitting in storage already.
The recipe is bought once, so every extra piece of Marble from later geodes can become another brazier.
