Highlights

• Calibrated 20–24 mm Nominal Thickness: Precision-calibrated to ensure a flat, consistent bed height for quick, seamless installation and level bedding.
• Textured Sawn Finish (Tactile Orange Peel Feel): Feature-grained with a subtle, tactile orange peel texture that balances contemporary minimalism with anti-slip grip and natural character.
• Hand-Cut Edges (3 sides): Features traditional hand-cut edges on both short sides and one long side. The remaining long side is machine-sawn to ensure a seamless, tight joint against a chamber section, brickwork, or wall.

Engineered with a calibrated 20–24 mm nominal thickness, a distinctive fine-textured surface, and hand-cut edges on three sides, this high-grade black limestone delivers exceptional structural density and thermal performance. Exhibiting an attractive, warm charcoal-grey tone in its raw state, this low-porosity limestone darkens into a deep, velvety jet-black when treated with an impregnating sealer or colour intensifier. Purpose-designed for luxury fireplace hearths, stove pads, window sills, coping, and interior architectural steps where you need clean geometry and reliable durability. Available nationwide as single slabs, bespoke cut-to-size pieces, or full wholesale crates for trade buyers across the UK.

If your slab cracks within 14 days of delivery (provided it is installed within that same 14-day window), we'll replace it completely free.

Every premium-grade order includes a free dispatch photo of your exact slab sent straight to you before delivery. Standard-grade slabs also include this service whenever a custom cutting or finishing service is added.
