A thin vine engraved into dark slate, curving round the wording and closing into a heart at the top. The round coaster is the shape this particular design was drawn for, and the reason is in the line itself.
The vine is one unbroken stroke from the base to the point where it meets itself. On a square it has to turn four corners or stop short of them, and on a heart it competes with an outline doing the same job. A circle lets it run the whole way round at an even distance from the edge, which is how it was drawn. The gap between the vine and the rim stays constant, and that even margin is most of what makes the design look finished rather than placed.
Wood has grain, and a hairline cut crossing it will thicken slightly where the fibres run loose. Slate has no grain at all, so the vine keeps the same weight along its entire length, including the fine leaves coming off it. That is the technical reason the thinnest designs in the coaster range work better in stone than in any of the four woods.
Engraving slate removes a dark charcoal face and exposes pale grey underneath, so the vine sits clearly against the stone rather than hiding in it. Nothing is printed on top and nothing can wear off. The stone is split rather than milled, so each piece has riven edges and slight variation in the tone of its face, and no two coasters in a set match exactly.
The vine encloses the text, so the usable area is smaller than the coaster suggests. Two names, or a name and a year, is the right length; our designers set it and confirm it reads before cutting. Sold singly or in sets of four or six, and a pair is common where it is being given rather than used as table kit.
Stone stays cold and handles condensation better than wood, which is why slate sets tend to get used for drinks. The same vine is cut in square and heart slate and in bamboo, cherry, acacia and walnut. A metal holder keeps a set stacked upright and stops the stones rubbing in a drawer.
