Slate Monolith SM399 is a clean, elegant natural stone obelisk for use in a landscaping or Japanese style garden design project. Sourced direct from the quarry in North Wales near Blaenau Ffestiniog. This was the main area for slate quarrying back in the day. Measuring approximately 800mm wide x 200mm thick x 600mm high. The shape of this stone resembles a sail with its triangular form. Full of slate grey tones and a splash of fools gold which light up when the sun hits the slate. This could be highlighted with subtle lighting at night to make a real statement in your garden design. Measuring approximately 600mm high and weighing in around 150kg.  Only one available and truly a one off. This slate monolith is not suitable for drilling or converting to a water feature, please contact us with any questions. If you like Slate Monolith SM399 but require something larger then please view our Large Slate Monolith category. Combine with a couple more stones at varying heights to make a real focal point in your garden and ease the transition in size.
