From the quarry

Cut, glazed and fired by hand

Basalt is cut from volcanic slopes, then shaped and edged to the size you asked for and fired once. The glaze goes on by hand and the piece is fired again. That second firing is what opens the fine crackle across the surface.

The crackle comes from heat, not from a pattern, so no two tops match. Every piece is sealed, food-safe and weatherproof, so the same top works on a terrace or in a dining room.
