Coral Stone Table Base

Please Note: No Marine Life is damaged our disturbed during our manufacturing process, since the quarry is above ground at this point. (It was below sea level many, many years ago)

What is Coral Stone:
Coral stone is a form of limestone. Many marine animals, such as coral and shellfish, have skeletons or shells made of calcium carbonate. When these animals die, there skeletons sink to the seafloor and accumulate to form large beds of calcium carbonate.

As more and more layers form, their weight compresses and cements the layers at the bottom, forming limestone. Details of skeletons and shells are often preserved in the limestone as fossils. The result after millions of years is coral stone.

How is a Coral Stone base made:

The process in making a Coral Stone Base is a very long, laborious and delicate. The process starts when the blocks of stone are brought to the manufacturing facility.

Here the stones are cut into more manageable sizes. Following that, we start piecing by piece, gluing everything together with an amazingly strong bonding solutions.

Once the basic structure has been assembled, we start hand carving with very small and precise tools each and every single accent and shape you see on these bases.

Remember, every single detail is hand carved, we do not use moldings of any kind (you can�t it is real rock!) It�s like doing a sculpture. These bases will last a lifetime! They are water resistant and very heavy. If they get dirty, they are very easy to clean! If the base gets stained you can lightly sand out the stained spot. You can use these bases in an indoor or outdoor setting. Please t ake a look at our bases Click Here
