You can use artificial stones to create the bank of a pond, a riverbed in a stream or an interesting pyramid for a waterfall. They are also good for decoratingflower beds and rock gardens, for building benches and sculptures for the garden. You can also use the artificial stones to build pretty garden paths, edges and retaining walls.

Choice of colors
The main component of artificial stone is white or gray cement. The white one is better in terms of quality and also more expensive. So if you plan to buy artificial stones, pay attention to the color. The brighter they are, the more reliable they will be. During production, various materials are mixed into the cement, such as expanded clay, perlite, sand or other mixtures. Dyes are also included. The price and how long the respective color lasts depends on their quality.
The materials used determine the quality of the artificial stones
When purchasing an artificial stone, it is impossible to determine whether it is made from cheap additives and dyes or from high-quality materials. Its quality can only be determined in a few months. Therefore, you should find out from the seller about the parts and components used before purchasing.
There are no universal decorative stones
To make the right choice, you should first decide whether you want to use the artificial stones as cladding indoors or outdoors. So if they were made to be used indoors, there is no point in using them outdoors. They will quickly become unfit and lose their pretty appearance. If you are told in the store that these are universal artificial stones, be sure to ask what temperatures the stones can withstand.
