Qingyi River Hotel

Photographs of the stone as wall cladding and column facing in the lobby, the reception, the lift lobby and the corridors.

· 1 min read

A hotel lobby with floor-to-ceiling windows looking out on a green hillside. Freestanding stone columns and wall panels in a pale grey-brown with straight horizontal bands run the full height of the room, their joints stacked vertically. A potted plant stands in front of them and the floor is a dark grey marble with a white web of veins, with the window frames casting shadows across it.
The window side of the lobby at the Qingyi River Hotel, where the stone forms the free-standing columns and the wall panels beside them, run full height in tall panels with the joints stacked vertically. The floor is a dark grey marble with a white web of veins. Daylight from the glazing throws the shadow of the window frames across both floor and wall.

The Qingyi River Hotel (青衣江酒店) uses this stone as wall cladding and as column facing through the public rooms: the lobby, the reception, the lift lobby and the corridors. The pale grey-brown with straight parallel lines running across it is the same board sold on this site, laid in large panels with the joints running vertically on the walls and horizontally where the panels turn a corner.

Where a floor or a counter appears in the same photograph it is a different marble — the floor is a dark grey with a white web of veins and the reception counter is a pale cream with grey veins — and the captions below say which is which. The stone in these photographs is the wall and the columns, and it is the part that was cut for this building.

Questions this article answers

Who does Coffee Wood Marble sell to?

We supply importers, stone distributors, fabricators, quarries and project developers who buy Coffee Wood Marble in slabs, tiles or cut-to-size pieces. We work on the China side: the stone is bought from the mine, processed in Shuitou or Yunfu, inspected before loading and shipped FOB.

What is the minimum order quantity?

One mixed container for a first order. There is no per-piece minimum, and slab quantities can be split across a book-matched pair or an offcut depending on the job.

What thickness and finish are available?

Slabs are typically 18 mm and 20 mm, with 15 mm and 30 mm available. Common finishes are honed, polished, flamed, brushed, sandblasted and leathered. Tiles are produced in standard and large formats.

How long does production take?

Seven to fifteen working days after the deposit, depending on the form and finish. Cutting, edge profiling and surface treatment are the steps that set the pace, not the stone itself.

Which ports do you ship from?

Xiamen, Quanzhou, Ningbo and Shanghai. We quote FOB to the port you nominate and compare forwarders before booking.

Do you publish a price list?

No. Natural stone moves with the block, the grade, the finish and the market, so a number printed on a website is out of date by the time it is read. Send us the form, thickness, finish, size and quantity and we quote FOB in writing against that specification.

Can we get a sample before ordering?

Yes. We cut a sample from the same block as your order - an A4 hand sample, a book-matched pair or an offcut - and ship it by courier. There is no obligation to order afterwards.
