We are one of the few natural stone importers in the UK that actually own our own quarry in Jerusalem. Our quarry has been in our family for generations. It is situated in the heart of the Holy Land which is why we can guarantee some of the finest quality natural jerusalem stone tiles, not only in the UK, but in the entire world.
: honed surface provides a flat, matte or satin finish creating a more informal and softer look. Stopping short of the last stage of polishing creates this finish. A honed finish shows fewer scratches, and requires very little maintenance.
:is achieved by heating the surface of the stone to extreme temperatures, followed by rapid cooling. The surface of the stone pops and chips leaving a rough, unrefined texture. Flamed Jerusalem Stone has a highly textured surface, making it ideal for areas where slip resistance might be a concern, like shower areas.
: gives you a rough texture, but one not as abrasive as flamed. This finish is typically achieved by hand cutting and chiselling at the quarry, exposing the natural cleft of the stone.
Thinnest a cement based adhesive that is applied to the surface with a notched or grooved trowel. The tile is then placed into the thinnest and pressed firmly into place. Since stone tiles vary in thickness and size, the amount of thinnest mortar applied is adjusted where needed.
