Glazed Lava Stone

The Force of Nature
Glazed Lava Stone Tops

In the year 2000, our creative director, Josephine Yaa Akuamoa, discovered the powerful glazed lava stone in Italy and brought it to Denmark one year later. She has worked with refining and exploring lava stone products ever since.

»It is a complex and endless love story. No other raw stone offers the opportunity to be glazed, fired and transformed into large pieces of ceramics. A glazed lava stone top is unique and cannot be compared to any other top. »It is pure nature — and like all nature, lava stone cannot be forced or controlled. It always responds to human touch. Working with lava stone requires humility,« explains Josephine Yaa Akuamoa.

Crafting the Glazed Lava Stone Tops

File Under Pop offers table top and counter solutions, which are custom-made and crafted from Sicilian lava stone. The volcanic lava stone is extracted from Mount Etna and then cut into pieces, which can measure up to 260x180cm per slab. Depending on the individual space and personal requirements, we offer lava stone tops in raw lava stone, glazed lava stone, and decorated lava stone, each available in various finishes. All colors from the Pop Solid Color Collection can be combined across the range.

If you seek perfection - the kind defined by industrial standards - then a glazed lava stone top is not the right choice. Its beauty lies instead in the dialogue between nature and craftsmanship.

»In the end, we are not seeking to control nature, nor to bend its rules; our intention is to engage with it« .
