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No. Natural stone moves with the block, the grade, the finish and the market, so a number printed on a website is out of date by the time it is read.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.

Answers / Decisions

Can Coffee Wood Marble be used for a fireplace surround?

Yes, and it is one of the best uses for it: a surround is cut from one slab, book-matched, and it is the largest single piece of the stone a client will ever see. What it must not be is the hearth surface.

A finished interior with dark wood-grain stone cladding on the walls, a matching stone floor, dark doors and a black sculpture on a plinth — Wall cladding in a room, the panels running the full height of the wall.

Hands holding a rectangular cut stone sample with a finished edge against the face of a large polished marble slab — The edge of a cut-to-size piece, which is what a wall panel is before it is fixed.

Reference photographs. They show the material and the finish; they are not photographs of goods we made, and the colour on screen is not a colour-match.

The figures, and where each one comes from

The element	What it needs
The surround	One slab, book-matched, the figure centred on the opening
The breast	The same slab continued upward, or a matching one
The hearth	A different, non-combustible material
The soffit and the lintel	The same slab, or a matching pair

Why it behaves the way it does

A fireplace is where a figure earns the most, because it is symmetrical and it is centred on something. It is also a warm place, and a warm place is where the difference between a honed and a polished surface shows more than anywhere else in a house.

What these figures are, and what they are not

We supply the stone for the surround and the breast. The hearth, the firebox and the clearances are the design and the code.

If you are specifying this

We have not published products against this question yet. Send us the process, thickness and quantity and we will quote it against what we can actually form, rather than against a catalogue.
