Colors

When selecting your color, it is important to keep the following in mind

  • Each ledge within our quarry has distinct color veins.
  • You are selecting a ledge, not a single color.
  • The composition and properties of dolomitic limestone can cause subtle changes in the stone as it ages and becomes weathered.
  • Grey and Oxidized Grey have been combined into one color blend as they are from one ledge.
  • The Kasota Ash Blend is one ledge that will weather to a creamy buff when installed as an exterior application. When this ledge is cut from the quarry, a portion of the typical block will already be weathered to the creamy buff tone.
