Deep within a limestone cave to a workshop where ancient beauty meets modern craftsmanship we explore the transformation of a raw block of onyx, mined from a stalagmite, into a stunning large vase.
We begin with a block of onyx, carefully extracted from a stalagmite. These natural wonders have taken millions of years to form, showcasing intricate banding and color variations unique to each piece.
Crafting Process: Follow the meticulous process as the raw onyx is cut, shaped, and turned on a lathe by skilled artisans. Discover the techniques and tools used to carve and polish the stone, revealing its inner beauty and creating a timeless decorative piece.
Ethical Consideration:
Throughout the video, I pose an important question: Is it ethical to mine stalagmites from caves that have taken millions of years to form? These natural treasures are part of our planet's history and raise important considerations about conservation and the balance between natural resource use and preservation.
