Basalt
12" Empire Honed
A volcanic stone most commonly formed from the rapid cooling of lava at Earth’s surface. Basalts can date back billions of years to the time of the formation of the earth itself. A fine-grained, dark grey, hard and dense stone, Basalt underlies more of Earth’s surface than any other rock type and makes up most of the sea floor.
