Known for its rich colour variations, natural texture, and timeless appeal, slate is a versatile natural stone that brings both character and durability to any space.
What Is Slate?
Slate is a fine-grained metamorphic rock formed from layers of clay and volcanic ash under intense pressure and heat. Its layered composition gives it a unique texture and strength, while its natural tones — ranging from deep greys and blacks to greens and purples — make it a beautiful and distinctive choice for modern and traditional interiors alike.
Because it’s naturally split into thin sheets, slate can be cut and shaped with precision, making it ideal for a wide variety of uses beyond roofing — including interior surfaces, decorative elements, and bespoke stone projects.
