Product Overview

Dove Grey limestone paving slabs 4 size patio pack, at times referred to as Kurnool Grey, the region in India where this fantastic stone is quarried. With sawn edges and a calibrated depth and a lovely grey colour palette, this beautiful stone suits both modern and traditional schemes and is sure to add that wow factor and transform your outdoor living space, The stone is super strong, indeed it shares many of the key attributes of granite that give its durability and strength. Very much a "go to" product for those that have done their research!

Colour - overall the colour tone is a blend of greys with occasional white fossil like markings that can be present, these marking only add to the authentic and natural appearance of this stone. 

Texture - the surface is relatively smooth and flat (but not slippery) and has the texture akin to running your hand across the skin of an older orange. You will feel the lovely texture but it is not rough of harsh. This makes it truly wonderful to walk on with bare feet, when our UK weather allows us to!

Quality - with our own team in India we only select the best blocks for consistency of colour and texture having control of the supply chain from source to our end customers ensures a consistent quality.
