Soap Stone / Steatite


Recommended Posts

Posted

As far as I know soap stone does not appear in Thailand but in China.

Does anybody know where to get it here in solid blocks (Any size, up to one cubic meter)? A friend of mine likes to make his own carvings.

Thanks in advance!

China :)

Have a drive around the inner ring road and check out one of the stone suppliers there I reckon. Will do myself in the week as am after some oxalic acid and will ask about the soapstone and post back if find anything out. :D

Thanks, Jack.

My friend told me he already looked at several stone suppliers (also showing them samples) but "No Hap". Hopefully you are more successful. In any case we highly appreciate your willingness to have a look, too, and look forward to your follow-up post.

BR, rebo

Oops, went around there but not on that weekend so totally forgot. Unfortunately the one I stopped at didn't have any idea what oxalic acid was and they chiefly work with marble :)
