Surface Finishes

Surface Finishes

When selecting a surface finish keep in mind the intended users.Great care is taken to maintain the natural characteristics of each stone when fabricating all finishes provided.

 

Polished:This surface is very smooth.  Polished crystals bring out the brilliant colors and grains of natural stone.  The shine comes from the natural reflection of the stone’s crystals.

 

Honed: Provides a flat, smooth low sheen.

 

Antiqued: Has low sheen with a semi-smooth textured surface that can appear and feel similar to leather.

 

Sand Blasted:This rough surface is the results of a pressurized flow of sand that provides a textured finish, commonly referred to as etched.

 

Flamed: A very rough surface that is developed during fabrication, the stone is wet and heated to cause only the surface crystals to pop loose from stone.
