Sculpture and Carving

Carved work and objects cut from the block, for the carver rather than for the fabricator
Cut and finished from Coffee Wood Marble at our own processing base. Typical specification: Carving is bought as a block, and the decision is which one. A carver wants a sound body with no internal veining that will open as the work thins, and the stone is bought by weight rather than by surface area — a 2-tonne block that carves clean is worth more than a larger one that fractures. What this station supplies is the block and the selection; the carving itself is a separate craft and a separate trade.

Sculpture and Carving, explained

On this stone Made to order, and the block decides. Ask before you specify it.

The decision you are making

Carving is bought as a block, and the decision is which one. A carver wants a sound body with no internal veining that will open as the work thins, and the stone is bought by weight rather than by surface area — a 2-tonne block that carves clean is worth more than a larger one that fractures. What this station supplies is the block and the selection; the carving itself is a separate craft and a separate trade.

What it looks like

Whatever the carver makes of it. The stone is chosen for how it behaves under a chisel rather than for how it looks on a shelf.

Where it is the right answer

Sculptors, stone carvers and makers of carved objects, who buy a block for the material rather than for a finish.

On Coffee Wood Marble

The straight figure is an unusual thing to carve, and a carver will want to know that before the block is cut. We say it here so they do not find out at the first chisel.

The specifications on these pages are the published supplier and trade-platform figures for Guizhou Coffee Wood Marble, and the decisions each form carries are our own reading of how this material behaves in that job. We have not run a slip test, an abrasion test or a weathering test on any of them. A floor, a path or an external threshold specified for slip resistance needs the tested wet-DCOF figure for the stone and the finish, which we will supply on request.

The stone, in photographs

Where each photograph was taken is written under it — the quarry yard, the sawing line, the polishing line, the packing bay, or a floor and a wall already laid with this stone.

Rows of raw blocks standing on end in the quarry yard, the sawn faces grey and the natural edges still rough, with the marking each block carries spray-painted on it.
