The Parasol mushrooms stone coaster mainly is made from a luxurious marble tile which has a rustic and uneven finish on the edges and corners. This finish is called “tumbled”, so there are no sharp borders on the coaster. Unlike some cheaper stone coaster options out there, these mushroom coasters do not have any chipped corners or borders. When you hold coasters with the same print design next to each other, you can see that no two are the same. The organic and fluid texture of the marble stone varies from having more veins in some parts to showing more of a bubbly looking texture in other areas, which makes each stone tile unique. They can be used to hold your summer drink in the garden or a small vase in the centre of your dining table. Each Parasol mushroom coaster has been finished with a light satin tile varnish to protect it from stains and heat. You can use hot mugs and cups on the coasters, but I would not recommend placing hot pans and pots on top of them. This coaster would be the perfect mushroom themed Christmas gift for your mushroom lover friend.

If you spill some wine or coffee on your coaster, simply wipe it with a damp cloth or the soft side of a sponge. Please do not use any rough sponges as these can damage the print. On its back, each stone coaster has a cork backing to prevent your table from getting scratched. If you have a closer look, you will see my AMPellegrini Art & Design logo ink stamped onto the cork with waterproof ink.

The original illustration for the Parasol mushroom coaster has been hand painted and developed into a print design by myself, Anna-Maria Pellegrini. I mainly work from my East London studio in the UK. My background in textile engineering means that the quality of all product materials (textiles or stone) is most important to me. Creating bold and eye catching posters that will last you for a long time, is the idea behind my collections. All stone coasters are printed by myself in my east London studio.

Each Parasol mushrooms stone coaster is securely wrapped in tissue paper and comes with a small care information leaflet. The coaster is then packed in as a small parcel with more padding around to ensure there occurs no breakage during the delivery.

To make sure your stone tile coaster will last you for a long time, I recommend the following care information to protect the material and the print:

• when stained or wet, wipe gently with damp cloth or soft sponge

• do not use rough side of sponge or steel sponge

• keep cork backing dry

• do not soak in water

• do not put it in the dishwasher

• suitable for hot cups and mugs, but not recommended for boiling pans and pots

Please note: if you decide to scrub your coaster excessively or with a rough sponge, the print may come off.
