FINISHES

*BRUSHED
BRUSHED / HONED
This matte-like finish involves the use of abrasives to smooth the stone down to a flat, even surface that’s not shiny or reflective.
*FLAMED
FLAMED
This process, as the name indicates, involves using a hot torch flame and running it over the surface of the stone to create a textured, non-slip finish that has a semi-rough surface.
*BUSH-HAMMERED

BUSH HAMMERED
Stone that has been finished with a bush hammer has a very textured look. Using a masonry tool that resembles a meat tenderizer, the surface of the stone is hammered to the point where it breaks up the surface enough to create deep pockets and ridges, resembling a natural rough texture.
*SAND-BLASTED
SAND BLASTED
Download
The stone is blasted with a high-pressure spray of air, sand, or other grit, by moving back and forth across the surface until there is a fine, textured look – similar to that of a perfectly combed beach. It can be sand blasted lightly or deeply.
*POLISHED
POLISHED
Polished stone is created using a process in which the stone is mechanically rubbed with different diamond pads until it naturally shines. This finish showcases the natural beauty of a stone by enhancing the stone’s natural color and veining.
Similar to if you were to rub a beach pebble repeatedly, the stone is rubbed with different diamond pads using a machine until it naturally polishes.
