Quick Support

A slab was broken when arrived. Not sure if it happened because of the packaging but the staff happily replaced it quickly for us.

Color Variation

Colour is quite different from what was shown on the website. Maybe it was some glitch. When we refreshed it later it was showing the true colour.
