In other bags of stone like this, the stones have been coated with something like varnish. Is this true with this bag too?

I guess they could be, but the finish looked pretty flat to me. Seemed exactly like pebbles you would pull out of a stream.

Based on the amount of dust and feel of the rocks, I don't believe so. Seem straight out of the stream. Very clean, but dusty.

Not that I know of. The bag I received, the rocks were just simply dusty and that was fixed by just washing them. The rocks are gorgeous and I couldn't be happier with the purchase. Hope this helps. :)

i just got it, do not know? i've seen the stones in a lot of places, they're standard issue. you get several in the box, different kinds.

I would say no. It's really just burlap bag material with a painted design on it. I think exposing it to the elements for long periods would degrade the quality, however in the short periods I expose it to (days/weeks) it's fine.

I use a polishing cloth and once a month cleaning solution. I recently had to have the tines tightened because the stone seemed loose and actually fell out.

I have no idea. The packaging makes no statements about its chemical composition one way or the other. The stone is made from a ceramic that seems to be a little coarser than porcelain, but is not glazed or coated in any obvious way.

not that I can tell. I would say no. the stone has been smoothly polished to a beautiful seamless finish

That's odd, I can't imagine that it was something intrinsic to the stones that did that. Been using them for iced coffee or coke something?

Mine 'looks and feels' like the same thing as the stones. It is really cool. The whole thing glows. Wish I could include a picture.

Yes, they are adhered to a piece of wood between all three stones. I've had mine for a couple years and it still works beautifully!

I purchased one of these sets; I can't claim to have a definitive answer, but the inside is clearly "raw," that is, not polished. The outside is at least polished, and there could be a sealer on it, such as one you may use on granite counter tops. I'm thinking that the inside is left that way to avoid slippage when you grind herbs. Just an idea...

Hi TT. The picture quality is poor! The stone however is genuine high quality natural product. Thus explaining the true color.Gmoney.

This stone is cookware grade. There are to many flaws. There are holes and cracks. This makes cleaning difficult and allows for bacteria to be trapped.

Sorry I can't help - it's been treated with so much TLC it's still in pristine condition. Didn't know about the animal bag though - glad to know there is such a thing. Sincerely, ldp54

Yes. It is rather like a giant sticker, or very thick contact paper. It does not look like stone up close, but it looks better than my ugly stained counters.

Yes it is...and you (as well as any potential buyer) should know that by looking at the brand name as that is all they offer. I had to look for the material listing of granite that you spoke of. I believe that it is a composite of granite so that may be why it is listed in that way. I have the sink and I absolutely love it.

It is not coated, or at least not in the typical manner. It's stone-washed, but you can definitely buff it up with sandpaper (I'd use 1k grit or higher) but no, I don't think it's coated in the same manner that most coated blades are.
