HARDWICK ENGLISH LIMESTONE

This limestone is suitable for the heaviest of traffic, with tones between light grey and beige. Particularly suited to contemporary interiors and a popular choice for swimming pool surrounds.

We recommend the following finishes which enhance the natural characteristics of this stone:

RECOMMENDED FINISHES

Bush Hammered (external finish)

Available with either square or chipped edges. Texture is consistent and uniformly distributed across the surface. Mainly used outside for low slip requirements.

Distressed (internal finish)

Rounded and fettered edges with a smooth, flat finish which is hand-applied to recreate the appearance of old flagstones.

Honed (internal finish)

Square, clean edges with a very smooth, flat surface. The finish achieved can vary from matt to gloss depending on the stone type with harder stones tending to look more polished. Ground to a smooth, flat, consistent surface which is easy to maintain.

Leather (internal finish)

Square edges with a smooth pitted surface which has been created with a special high pressure mechanical action.

Matt Honed (internal finish)

Square, clean edges with a very smooth, flat surface. Almost dusty in appearance.

Patera (external finish)

Square edges with a coarse honed surface finish which gives it an almost dusty appearance, sometimes referred to as fine rubbed. Well suited to low slip areas.
