About
Raffir Calceon™ is Raffir's latest material development. It is an original hybrid of natural formations of calcite minerals and strong, partially bio-based resin in various colors. The natural calcite material is infused with a durable resin through a stabilization cycle of vacuum and very high pressure. The resin is not only stronger and more heat-resistant than typical alternatives on the market, but it also utilizes new technology that allows us to substitute nearly a third of the raw material with bio-based alternatives without compromising the quality that we and our customers expect from our materials.
Natural beauty forged underwater
The basis of Raffir Calceon™ is the natural calcite formations that occur over centuries in mineral-rich freshwater springs. The fine structures of the material primarily come from local vegetation that grew in and around the springs before vanishing, leaving the mineral porous with distinct organic structures. The natural origin of the base material ensures that every piece of Raffir Calceon™ has its own unique expression of grain structures. In other words, each piece tells it's own story of how it was formed by nature over centuries.
Processing Calceon™
Normal tools for wood, horn and bone are sufficient to cut, grind, drill, mill and polish the material. Diamond tools are useful, but not necessary. The resin that we use has good hardness and heat stability, which also makes it very easy to polish.
