When you buy Thirstystone coasters you are not only buying a coaster that will last for generations, but you are buying a true work of art. The production process of these coasters involves cutting huge boulders of sandstone out of the earth in an eco-friendly manner. Since the stone contains different natural colors and patterns, you will have coasters that are unique in that no two coasters will be of the same color. If you purchase coasters will various paintings and designs, these may be the same, but the stone will be different in each one.

The cost of Thirstystone coasters is quite reasonable, making them the perfect gift for the person who has everything. When you entertain on a regular basis, you can never have too many coasters. Choose several sets of coasters in the same design to suit the decor of your room or have different sets with a seasonal theme. With thirty different images of flowers to choose from, you will have an abundant supply of coasters for use when serving drinks on the patio. In winter, such coasters will evoke images of the warmer weather that is to come.

Show your pride in your alumnus with collegiate coasters. If you browse the online catalog you will see that there are seventy of these coasters to choose from. This allows you a great range of colleges and sports teams to recognize, especially if your family has several college educations in their background.

The life of the Old West will come alive in the coasters when you choose this design. Display the image of an old train, cowboy boots, different brands used by ranches or the image of a mountain valley on the coaster set of your choice. The Interior Design collection will allow you to coordinate your interior decor with the various hues and swirls of patterns that come through the stone in the drink coasters. Some of these images include the Fleur de Lys, an amber glow or the image of a palm tree that will transport you to exotic locations as you sip on your drink.

Numerous artists create the designs used in Thirstystone coasters. You can search the catalog to find the paintings and etchings of your favourite artist and design your collection around this talented person. You can purchase these coasters directly from the Thirstystone site, but there are retailers both online and off in all parts of the country. Some of these retailers carry the complete line up of products designed and produced by Thirstystone. To clean the coasters all you have to do is rinse them off in clear cool water and lay them on a cloth to dry. You do not have to dry them because the water will naturally evaporate, just as it does when it collects in the beverage coaster from the condensation on the outside of the glass. A fresh stain will only need a light rinsing, but one that has been there for some time may be a bit more stubborn. In this case you can apply a few drops of a mild dishwashing liquid and gently scrub the stain to take it out. You should never put these coasters in the dishwasher because it will harm both the stone and the cork backing.
