What is the difference between Natural Thin Veneer and a man-made stone?
Our Natural Thin Veneer is natural stone. Man-made stone is produced by pouring a combination of cement, aggregate and color pigments into molds. This mixture is then allowed to cure. Because there are only a limited number of molds and colors for a man-made product, a repeating pattern can result on larger projects. In contrast, every piece of Natural Thin Veneer is unique in color and shape because it is quarried from the earth. It can be custom cut and trimmed to meet your specifications, 90 degree corners are standard although corners other than 90 degrees can be cut to meet your specifications. In addition, because the colors that man-made stone uses are also man-made in dye-lots, colors can vary from manufactured run to manufactured run, resulting in color differences from flats to flats and from flats to corners.
