FAQ's
We tested many different stone products to achieve the best results for a rustic look and
genuine stone feel. Our pieces are substantial - you may find that they are a little heavier
than your standard stone coaster.
Our travertine and tumbled marble is sourced globally, (typically in the Mediterranean) in
both smooth and textured finishes. We find the inks adhere best to these surfaces and the
colour stays true on our marble pieces.
All coasters and trivets come with four silicone tabs on the back to protect the finish of your
furniture. Alternatively, you can ask about or recycled barnboard stands.
Our larger stone pieces arrive ready to hang with our plastic-coated stainless-steel wire and
two silicone tabs to protect your wall.
These durable stones will last for years if handled like any piece of functional art. We
recommend you follow our care instructions:
Gently wipe clean with a damp cloth to remove any liquid promptly.
Avoid soaking or using abrasive cleaning products or methods.
Do not place it in the dishwasher or use it as a cutting board with sharp objects.
To begin, we carefully select a piece of natural stone as each one is unique. We visually
inspect it to ensure it is suitable for printing. Each stone has a natural variation in texture and colour, making it a one-of-a-kind, rustic piece of functional art. Some images are better
suited for textured stone. Images such as portraits of people or pets and photos with focus
on detail are only suitable for smooth stone.
Once the stone is selected, it is washed, brushed, and cleaned to ensure proper adherence
of ink. Our pieces are printed with a high-quality UV printer in our studio with a simultaneous
white underprinting to enhance the brightness of our eco-friendly UV-cured inks. This
process ensures a superior quality print that is extremely durable.
Upon print completion, it is inspected for quality. When we print on the reverse side, the
entire process is repeated. This is why coasters with a custom imprint on the back take a
little longer to create.
