Boring.

Large vertical white space below top horizontal menu.

Photos are not high quality. You need to hire a professional photographer.

You are joking with the keyword meta tag on your homepage?

Normally, I like an all-white background. But since you used a light marble background on your left index, it makes the rest of the 66% of the page very plain. I would continue the marble theme throughout and see how it looks...

The faded logo on the bottom right seems out of place...

You have your email address plastered all over your site. If you don't remove it, you will get tons of s-p-a-m like I did. I ended up deleting the email id and programming a more professional-looking "Ask Us" page. You can then interface the page with a CGI with safe email logic.

Lastly, I agree with Dave. What's with the keyword tag? I heard this meta tag is no longer used by search engines. Plus, smaller search engines look at only the first 10 words anyway. Don't get accused of spamming; rely on your page content for PR.

Looks like good quality stuff!

Good luck!

Nice short homepage. Good linking structure. Straight to the point. Well done, thumbs up from me.

Design is good. Yes, I also think that the pictures are not high quality display. Can be improved further. Yes, I think you should not be putting 'too much' keywords .. like your chess ...

Pics are ugly. Animation is bad. Sorry for my bad comment, but this is what your website is looking.

Please remove background grey color from your title logo. Keep attractive fonts.

Don't use all pictures in one go. Bring them one-by-one with good animation and little note describing it.

The only comment I have is on the size of your images. Catalogue loads really slow because your images are almost half megabyte in size each. I suggest putting only a very small low quality thumbnail there and letting the large size come as a separate screen. On 256 megabits/sec the page took 3 minutes to load. Nobody stays that long on internet waiting. Also on the http://www.marbleline.co.uk/tiles.html clicking on the images brings error. The links are broken there. You need to fix that. The Telephone and Coffee table has no entry. Remove pages with nothing on. All pages are centered except Chess, Flowers, Lamps, Coffee table and phone sets. Use the same template if possible so browser displays in the same spot. And do remove all email links. You get flooded with spam. They use spider to crawl websites to harvest emails like yours. Nice product, should sell well. And like said before, be sensible with keywords. Use key phrases instead. It is more effective. Also your mask work on images needs to improve; too many jagged edges. Please take is as constructive input, not criticism.
Good look with selling though.
