We import raw blocks directly from Brazil and process them in our own facility. This ensures you get factory-direct pricing and strict quality control on finished products like vanities and columns.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q2: Can you make custom marble vanities with drawers?<\/strong> Yes. We specialize in fabricating complete vanity units. We can cut the stone for the countertop, backsplash, and even the drawer fronts to match the vein flow (vein-matching).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q3: Can I order stone moldings and door frames?<\/strong> Absolutely. We have specialized profiling machines to produce linear stone moldings, window sills, and door surrounds to your exact architectural drawings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q4: Is Calcite Caraibica suitable for carving sculptures?<\/strong> Yes. Its crystalline structure is excellent for carving. It allows light to pass through thinner carved sections, creating a beautiful glowing effect in sculptures and ornaments.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q5: Do you ship worldwide?<\/strong> Yes. We export containers globally. For fragile finished products like vanities and sculptures, we use reinforced wooden crates with ample foam protection.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q6: Is Calcite Caraibica the same as Onyx?<\/strong> No, but similar. It is a crystalline marble that is generally harder and available in larger sizes than Onyx.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q7: Can I use it for a kitchen countertop?<\/strong> It is possible but requires care as it is soft. It is best used for vertical backlit features or bar tops.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q8: Does it need to be backlit?<\/strong> Not necessarily, but backlighting unlocks its full potential and vibrancy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q9: Is book-matching available?<\/strong> Yes. We prioritize book-matched bundles for this material as it is almost exclusively used for feature walls.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q10: What is the lead time?<\/strong> We stock raw blocks. Slab production takes 10-14 days. Complex carved products (columns, sculptures) take 20-30 days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q11: Can see a video of the slab backlit?<\/strong> Absolutely. Contact our sales team, and we will send you a high-definition video of the current stock with a light held behind it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q12: Is waterjet cutting possible?<\/strong> Yes. Our waterjet machines can cut precise shapes for floor medallions or intricate wall inlays.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Choose Caron Stone<\/strong> Caron Stone is your trusted <strong>Chinese manufacturing partner<\/strong> for exotic stone. We combine premium Brazilian material with skilled Chinese craftsmanship.
