Beneath the Surface

A History of Quality

Newly quarried Vernet comes from the Dordogne region, best known for having the highest concentration of castles per area in all of France. The limestone and sandstone deposits throughout this area offer a wide range of nuanced shelling, veining patterns and color variation. Our supplier has been in operation for more than 20 years, and their team’s intimate knowledge of these extraordinary natural stones helps to ensure the singularity, originality and superior quality of every section that they source. Though machinery is used for extraction, transportation and fabrication of the raw materials, the final steps of the process are left to the hands of expert stonemasons. With precision and care, they thoughtfully finish every slab and piece to highlight its stunning natural beauty.

Why do we love it?

The dynamic contrast in coloration and uniquely expressive character that captures the essence of antique stone.

How does it look?

Vernet has a high contrast of light and dark neutral coloration, natural shelling and surface textures that replicates the look and feel of antique stone.

How does it wear?

Minor to moderate wear can be expected over time, depending on traffic.

Where can I use it?

Suitable for indoor use and certain exterior applications, depending on location and climate.

Variation disclaimer

Because of the individualized nature of the materials we sell, many of the products have significant variation in size, shape, color, texture and thickness. These irregularities are inherent in hand-made and natural materials such as ours. It is the responsibility of the owner/purchaser and those acting on behalf of the owner such as the designer, architect, contractor or installer to verify that the material specified is appropriate for its final application and to review and approve all materials before the materials are shipped. Samples are available on request. Samples are given as an indication of a particular product and are for reference only. Due to the inherent variation in the size, shape, thickness, texture and color of our materials, individual samples cannot be considered exact representations.

Through expert photography, every effort has been made to faithfully represent our products and materials on this website. However, due to lighting and color variations, no picture can be considered an exact representation of the material being shown.
