Ryitsari a stone table
Use in deespeshno-laminatnom a kitchen interior of the one and only stone table-top changes atmosphere in the house to unrecognizability. Members of household as if get in the Middle Ages world where men feel knights, and the mistress queen Gvineveroj. The good stone table-top obliges to solid?? And to measured rate of a life where there is no noisy vanity, alarms and excitements.

The stone table-top rdiating coldness and askezu sets the fashion also style to all kitchen attributes. Here there is no place to pottery and wooden spoons with cocks. On such table-top the mountain neb’yuschihsya plates and plastic jugs cannot lay. In a word, a table-top on kitchen — the queen. What queen — such and it vernopoddanyie.
How to choose a table-top?
The line and colour in design of an interior play a main role. Ideally equal edge of a table-top is a high art kamneobrabotki. In ancient Rome kamnetesy-slaves were able manually by means of simple tesal and troyanok to process a stone, achieving amazing results in polishing of absolutely equal edge of table-tops. Modern kamneobrabatyivayuschee the equipment allows to process a slab with the admission in 0,1 mm. At the furniture exhibitions in Cologne and Milan the set of table-tops from a granite, marble, basalt, sandstone is presented. But it is possible to choose from hundred absolutely equal table-tops from force two — three at which the straight line is really irreproachable and sootnosima with world standards of high art. The tempted designer — the architect who was put in operation not by one ten projects can give a correct estimation only.
More difficult business with colour is. Domestic deposits: Urals Mountains, Siberia, Kareliya, Altai are not so rich with a wide palette of paints and a variety of natural drawing of stones. Basically it is simple gradation on koleram: grey, red, green, black, white; and derivative of them: it is grey — red, zelenovato — white, it is black — red etc. And here the coast of Adriactic Sea (Italy, Greece) is rich with deposits of such stones where the gradation of colour and drawing has to hundred names of the red: Balmorel Red, Dzhil Tau, Red Carmen, Purpurno — scarlet etc.
Colour of a stone depends on making minerals: quartz (grey grains), feldspar (pink and white) and mica (black). So, for example, kalievyie field spars paint a stone in blue colour. But special beauty of drawing of the table-top (stone), similar brekchievoy to a mosaic, tumours, konkretsii, sentarii create, divorces, impregnations, prozhilochki. And, the they zamyislovatey, the there is this stone more expensively. Not each presumes a table-top from a jasper. But look for these fantastic images, fireworks of the natural imagination, showing to a look space landscapes, florid floods of the rivers.
To choose colour of a stone it is necessary in tune front cover of your kitchen. It is bezhevo-grey (Kibik-cordon), white-grey (Byanko Karara), red-grey (Kapustjansky), rozovo-beige (the Rose Portuguese), green (Green Tinos) more often. Less often — black (Gabro) and white (Thasos Vayt). Though all depends on tastes of members of household. The table-top which has been successfully picked up for colour to the basic colour scale, introduces sensation of monumentalism, stability and reliance of tomorrow.
From a drop to a grand piano cover
If you at least time had dinner behind a stone table, in the polished which surface shine of happy eyes of your interlocutor is reflected, — you want to repeat this meal infinite quantity of times while to your grandsons this family relic will not pass in the inheritance. Certainly, it (relic) of years through hundred will grow dull, will be scratched, but thus only will acquire antiquarian value. Furthermore modern chemical means allow to restore its shine before mirror reflexion. Skolyi and scratches are easily restored by a wax pencil of the same colour, as a table-top. For what it is necessary to kindle it in a flame and to drip on the damaged place, to give to it ostyinut 30 — 40 minutes, then a thin edge to cut off an acting superfluous part. After that it is necessary to grind a surface a flannel or woollen rag (during polishing quality of shine depends). In no event it is impossible to use a skin or other unchecked chemical methods. It you definitively ruin it. And it is better to invite the expert, and it will make all in the best possible way.
Above we spoke about firm minerals: a granite, balzat, diabase, diorit. Marble does not concern this group of minerals. Marble table-tops more whimsical and delicate in use. To them follows concerns more carefully. On them there can be stains from red wine if you have not washed off them in time.
Also table-tops from dolomite, sandstone, mramorizovannogo limestone are absolutely unfairly forgotten. In the Western Europe in this season portable lunch little tables of the round and oval form from yellow dolomite are very popular. In serene autumn evening such table on a verandah or under a canopy is neot’emlennoy a part of an evening tea feast. The dining table from brekchievidnogo a conglomerate covered with mosaic stone plaques, will introduce celebratory mood in the most sad company of friends.
And at last the most expensive and most refined table-top with a mosaic.
Family value — a mosaic

This engineering assumes creation of drawing or an ornament on the basis of one stone — SYINSCH, malachite, lazurite. If Florentine mozayka it was used for an ornament of small fragments of an interior and creation of picturesque miniatures in Russia the mosaic has acquired wider spectrum of application. On a table-top embody infinite set of abstract ornaments, the richest on colour scale, and also the realistic image of subjects — birds, butterflies, bowls, colours, fruits, landscapes and still-lifes, genre scenes and compositions on bible plots.

With these works of art the part of soul of the artist, their created will enter into your house also. And time and again still descendants will recollect a kind word of the one whom taste sufficed, forces and means to place in the house the fine bright talismans bearing good and positive power, lives imparting elevated style.
