Tell me about the stone Ostrich Gray slate has a beautiful shimmering gray face with hints of orange and red. This is a natural looking stone that feels rugged and earthy. There is a slight variation in tonality throughout the tile, creating a subtle pattern that looks just like bubbling magma. This is the charm of a natural stone, its delicate irregularity.
Slate is a great option for those looking for a high-quality stone with a reasonable price point. It is incredibly durable, making it suitable for high traffic areas of the home including hallways and kitchens. Slate is often used for roof tiles, an application that requires a hardwearing material capable of resisting heavy wear and tear. Therefore, whatever application you have in mind, it's likely that slate will be up to the job.
Tell me about the tile's finish A natural cleft face is not created by a man-made process, it is actually the stone's organic texture. Slate forms when layers of shale and mudstone are compressed to form a hardened rock. The stone is easily cleaved into slab along these natural fault lines, the perfect material for creating tiles. The slabs are carved to the correct shape and size, but their surface is left unrefined. Any bumps and ridges are intact, a stunning natural feature which leaves the stone with its rustic character and charm.
In terms of investment potential, a natural cleft face is possibly the most hardwearing finish out there. As one of the least refined surfaces on the market, its look is not impacted by heavy wear and tear. The natural cleft face is intentionally irregular and rustic looking. Therefore, it generally requires only a regular cleaning schedule to keep it looking its best.
