Particularly valuable [[economic stone]]s are designated as prohibited for general use by [[mason]]s and the like for making stone furniture or crafts, being reserved for the [[furnace]]s. In some cases, however, it might be desirable or necessary to make furniture from economic stone. A noble might demand a [[native silver]] [[table]] for their room, or other magma-safe materials being exhausted a [[bauxite]] [[floodgate]] might be necessary to control the magma flow.
