Is natural stone transported in blocks or slabs?
18. How long does it take to receive stock on a special order? WK have over 30,000 slabs of natural and engineered stone in our Sydney, Melbourne and Gold Coast warehouses. We have numerous options for you to choose from and continually have new material working its way to Australia. Getting stock for a special order involves sourcing, ordering and transportation from overseas. This process will generally take approximately 10 – 12 weeks. 19. I’ve heard the term book leafed / book matched…what does that mean? Book leafed / book matched involves matching the veins of two adjoining slabs (generally marble) to give the effect that the two (or more) slabs become one. Book leafing looks great! 20. What other applications are there for natural stone? Natural stone can be also used for splash backs, wall cladding, flooring, vanities, bathrooms and a variety of outdoor uses.
