Stones have
different surface textures, according to their formation but these days,
stones are fabricated to give desired surface textures. There are six
main types of surfaces that are in use.
 |
Natural
The natural surface texture is achieved by ripping along its line
of cleavage to reveal the natural grain & texture, which gives
an undulating surface with great character. The surface comes with
natural clefts giving a very natural look. |
 |
Polished
Polished surface texture is a reflection of polished crystals that
bring out the brilliant colors and grains of natural stones. The
shine on stone surface comes from polishing bricks and powders used
during fabrication and not from any coating. |
 |
Sand Blast
Producing a finish similar to cleft, sand blasting involves
projecting a high-pressure airline coarse-grained grit, onto the top
surface of the stone. It is characterized by a textured surface with
a matte gloss. |

Antique Finished
Producing a finish similar to cleft, sand blasting involves
projecting a high-pressure airline coarse-grained grit, onto the top
surface of the stone. It is characterized by a textured surface with
a matte gloss. |
 |
Flaming
It is a rough surface that is developed due to the bursting of
crystals when the stone is heated. This surface gives an irregular
textured finish. |
