    If the satone is really stone or glass (and not wood), a long soak in a mild bleach solution (one tablespoon per 5 gallons) will work wonders....

    worst thing that can happen is the stone breaks down, but I've only had that happen with wooden ones.

    Make sure you follow up with a really good rinse....
