Overview
A monolithic stone kitchen island with rounded corners and an integrated sink formed from the same stone — custom built to your drawings in our Foshan factory.
This island reads as one block of stone: every visible face — top, sides and the rounded corners — is clad in the same material, and the sink is formed from that same stone rather than dropped in. The result is a monolithic piece with no visible joints in the envelope, built to your plan in our Foshan factory.
The monolithic look is a cladding exercise over a working carcass. Stone panels are cut by CNC, the corner radii machined to match, and the sink basin fabricated and sealed from the same batch of material. Inside, the island works like any other kitchen unit — plumbing, storage and waste all hide behind the stone.
Travertine, marble, quartz and sintered stone are all possible, each with honest trade-offs we will walk you through. The stone is approved against physical samples before production, crated in timber for shipping, and loaded with the rest of your kitchen order in one container.
- Every visible face — top, sides and rounded corners — in the same stone
- Sink basin fabricated from the same stone batch and water-tested in the factory
- Corner radii machined to drawing, from a tight 150 mm to a sweeping 400 mm
- Travertine, marble, quartz or sintered stone, with honest care guidance
- Sectional build plan checked against your access routes and floor loading
- Crated in timber A-frames and shipped worldwide
Full specification
Dimensions, corner radii, stone options and ordering terms for the monolithic island — weight, access routes and the sectional build plan are reviewed at drawing stage.
| Item | Standard specification |
|---|---|
| Overall dimensions | Made to your plan in millimetres. Typical islands run 2,400–3,600 mm long and 900–1,100 mm deep at 900 mm high. |
| Corner radius | Rounded corners machined to drawing, typically 150–400 mm radius; the same radius continues through the worktop and side cladding. Square corners available. |
| Structure | Stone cladding over an 18 mm moisture-resistant plywood carcass; a concealed steel subframe carries the top and sink where spans require it. |
| Weight | A stone-clad island is heavy — typical units run several hundred kilograms. Floor loading and access routes are reviewed at drawing stage, and the unit splits into sections for installation. |
| Interior | Storage, plumbing voids and waste positions to your layout; access panels and services marked on the shop drawings. |
| Item | Standard specification |
|---|---|
| Stone cladding | Travertine, marble, quartz or sintered stone from our own stone range — every visible face, including the rounded corners, in the same material. |
| Integrated sink | Basin fabricated from the same stone batch, bonded, sealed and water-tested in the factory; single or double bowl, with a drainer groove option machined into the top. |
| Carcass board | 18 mm moisture-resistant plywood throughout, edges sealed in PVC or ABS. |
| Item | Standard specification |
|---|---|
| Stone colours | Selected from our stone range and approved against physical samples — travertine, marble, quartz and sintered colours. |
| Surface finish | Honed, polished or leathered per stone type. Travertine is filled and honed as standard. |
| Sealing and care | Natural stone is sealed in the factory; re-sealing guidance supplied per stone type. Sintered stone needs no sealing. |
| Item | Standard specification |
|---|---|
| Geometry | Length, depth, height and corner radius — from a tight 150 mm to a sweeping 400 mm curve, or square corners — drawn to your plan. |

Materials & construction
How the monolithic island is built: a CNC-cut stone envelope, a sink fabricated from the same batch, and a weight-planned sectional structure.
-
Monolithic stone envelope
Top, sides and rounded corners are clad in the same stone, so the island reads as one solid block. Panels are CNC-cut to ±1 mm and dry-fitted in the factory, and the corner radii — anywhere from 150 to 400 mm — are machined, not mitred tiles pretending to be a curve.
-
Sink formed from the same stone
The basin is fabricated from the same stone batch as the worktop, so colour and veining continue into the bowl. Single or double bowls with machined drainer grooves are bonded, sealed and water-tested in the factory before crating.
-
Structure and weight planning
The envelope clads an 18 mm moisture-resistant plywood carcass, with a concealed steel subframe carrying the top and sink where spans require it. A stone-clad island runs several hundred kilograms, so the build splits into numbered sections sized to your access routes and floor loading.
-
Honest stone guidance
Travertine and marble are living surfaces that etch and patina — we fill, hone and seal them in the factory and supply re-sealing guidance. Quartz (93% quartz content, non-porous) and sintered stone keep the look with zero sealing. We state the trade-offs plainly and courier samples of each.

Choosing the stone for a monolithic envelope
Because every visible face — top, sides, rounded corners and the sink itself — is the same material, the stone decision carries the whole piece. Samples of each option are couriered, and we state the care trade-offs plainly.
- Travertine
- filled and honed — the warm, carved look that develops patina; sealed before shipping and re-sealed periodically.
- Marble
- natural veining wrapping every face in one flow — sealed in the factory; etches with acids and wears in with use.
- Quartz
- 93% quartz content, non-porous — the monolithic look with a harder, never-sealed surface and consistent colour.
- Sintered stone
- zero sealing and heatproof in 20 or 30 mm — the zero-maintenance route to the same silhouette.
- Honed black granite
- the dark option — dense, heatproof and near-zero veining for a quiet, sculptural block.
Packaging and shipping
Stone elements travel in timber A-frame crates with edge protection; the build plan splits the island into sections sized for your access routes, and each section and crate is numbered on the packing list.
The island normally shares a container with the rest of your kitchen or whole-home order. Loading is planned and photographed in Foshan before sealing — FOB from our port or DDP to your door, quoted per destination. Installation on site is by your own team from our assembly drawings.
-
Drawings approved
Shop drawings, finish samples and the packing plan are all signed off by you before production starts.
-
Production & QC
Built in our Foshan factory under an ISO 9001 quality-management system, with QC photos taken at each stage.
-
Flat-pack & crating
Carcass sections in numbered 5-ply export cartons; stone elements crated in timber A-frames with edge protection.
-
Loading documented
Container loading is planned and photographed in Foshan before sealing — you receive the photos before the vessel sails.
-
FOB or DDP worldwide
Sea freight from our port, or delivered duty paid to your door — quoted per destination, under one packing list.
-
Ready to install
Every carton is numbered in installation sequence, with assembly drawings ready for your installer on site.
Care and maintenance
A care sheet matched to your chosen stone ships with the documents. The essentials for a monolithic envelope:
- Stone envelope
- quartz and sintered stone need only soap and water; travertine and marble are sealed before shipping and re-sealed periodically — the schedule for your stone is included with the documents.
- Integrated sink
- clean like the worktop, with the drainer grooves brushed out; natural-stone basins get the same sealer maintenance as the rest of the envelope.
- Interior
- plumbing voids and storage behind the stone are reached through the access panels marked on the shop drawings — no stone is disturbed for maintenance.
Where it works best
Where a monolithic stone island belongs — minimalist interiors, wet-zone heavy kitchens and sculptural show spaces.
Minimalist interiors
A monolithic block with no visible joints suits pared-back rooms where conventional cabinetry lines would be noise.
Wet-zone heavy kitchens
Sink, drainer and worktop in one sealed stone envelope — there are no joints for water to find.
Villas and ground floors
Where floor loading is not a constraint the monolithic look is at its best — we still verify loading and access at drawing stage.
Studios and showrooms
A sculptural working piece for client-facing spaces, with matching counters and vanities available from the same stone batch.

Still have a question?
Send your list and get a costed, itemised answer — no obligation, no sales pressure.
Is the island really solid stone?
It reads as solid stone, but the honest answer is that it is stone cladding over a working carcass — that is what allows plumbing, storage and a sensible weight. Every visible face, including the rounded corners and the sink, is the same stone.
How is the integrated sink made?
The basin is fabricated from the same stone batch as the worktop, bonded, sealed and water-tested in the factory before crating. Single or double bowls and machined drainer grooves are set on the shop drawings.
Will a stone island be too heavy for my floor?
Weight is calculated at drawing stage and the unit splits into sections for access and installation. For upper floors or tight access, tell us the route and floor construction early — the build plan is adjusted to suit.
Does travertine need special care?
Travertine is a living surface: we fill and hone it in the factory and seal it before shipping, and it will develop patina with use. If you want the monolithic look with zero maintenance, sintered stone is the honest alternative — we will show you both as samples.
Can the corners be a different radius, or square?
Yes. The corner radius is machined to drawing — anything from a tight 150 mm to a sweeping 400 mm curve, or square corners if the design calls for them.
What is the minimum order and lead time?
No fixed MOQ per piece — the island ships with the rest of your order in a shared container. Lead time is typically 45–60 days after stone and drawing approval, confirmed per order before deposit.
What should I send to get a quotation?
Your plan or measured sketch with the intended footprint and corner radius, the sink layout you want, and your stone direction — travertine, marble, quartz or sintered. We respond with a build plan and a price.
How do I choose between travertine, marble and sintered stone?
We courier samples of each and talk through the trade-offs honestly: travertine and marble patina and etch, sintered keeps the look with zero sealing. Your brief and your appetite for maintenance decide — not the brochure.
How much does a monolithic stone island cost?
Pricing is per project — the drivers are the stone species, the envelope area and corner radii, the sink fabrication, and the sectional engineering for your access routes. Send your plan with the intended footprint and corner radius and we return an itemized quotation with the build plan.
