Slate Plinth SM425 was chosen at a quarry in North Wales and hand finished in our Southampton workshop. At approximately 430mm tall, this Small slate plinth is ideal as a base for a sculpture or statue. A sawn, smooth surface exposes stunning contrasting colours  Alternative use as a feature stone in a large Japanese garden design, or as part of a group of stones in a larger landscaping project. Sawn base provides a flat and safe stable base. Premium quality welsh slate measuring 300mm x 180mm at the base makes this a rather heavy but yet manageable piece. Weighs in at only 75kg so could be moved on site with a sack truck or trolley. Installation options are placing on a solid flat base or concreting into the ground. Stone of this size, quality and characteristics is becoming increasingly difficult to source in the quarry. We can hold this slate plinth in the yard until you’re ready for delivery or until your landscapers arrive on site. This can easily be combined with similar size stones to create a Japanese themed garden or Zen like retreat in your garden. Combine with other slate products such as slate chippings and slate stepping stones to create a simple Japanese style garden. Please see additional product gallery images highlighting beautiful markings. Visit our youtube channel for a short video of this stone plinth.

This would require a Large Reservoir Pack to fully operate as a working water feature. Pack consists of reservoir, pump, hose, clips and flow valve regulator. An alternative already drilled piece is Slate Monolith SM304 Water Feature or Slate Monolith SM311 Water Feature. Please contact us for a quote on this additional work.

The images really don’t do this stone justice as it really is a stand out piece.
