We commonly offer 3 finishes in natural stone – polished, honed and leathered (LF)

We offer 3 finishes on natural stones – Polish, Hone and Leather.

• Polish – This finish is glossy, shiny and reflective in some cases like metal or mirror.
• Hone – This finish is reminiscent of a matte surface. It is smooth and soft without a shine and easy to maintain.
• Leather – This finish has texture and depth to it and adds character to a space when used correctly. This finish is also the best for slip resistance and outdoor use.

The best color for your home depends on your personality, preference and the look you are trying to achieve. As a general guideline,

• light stones reflect light making a room appear bigger and brighter while dark stones absorb light making a room appear smaller and more intimate.
• However, using a dark stone or a stone with a lot of drama on 1 wall in a well-lit area or a light-colored room, will help attract focus and highlight the wall.

• Many of today’s popular styles of tile are designed to look and feel like natural stone, emulating their rugged surface and color variations. These tiles are intended to show color and texture variations, just like natural stone. Since the composition of the tile’s glaze also varies, different tile styles will also exhibit different gloss levels.
• You should also be aware that solid color tiles provide a consistent look, however shade variation is inherent in all fired ceramic products and certain tiles will show greater variation within their dye lots.
• Shade variation is usually indicated on the carton of each tile product with a low, moderate, high or random rating. Here, to help you, are the definitions:
  • Low – Consistent shade and texture
  • Moderate – Moderate shade and texture variation
  • High – High shade and texture variation
  • Random – Very high shade and texture variation
• The presence of shade variation in the tile is represented by a multi shaded square grid on the tile carton and is true for almost tiles.
