Avalon Limestone is a sophisticated natural stone primarily quarried in the Taza region of northern Morocco. Characterized by its refined, fine-grained structure and a serene palette of light to mid-grey tones, this stone often features subtle blue or beige undertones and delicate organic veining. Also known as Pierre de Taza or Morocco Azul Valverde, it is highly valued for its versatility in both contemporary and traditional designs, ranging from interior flooring to pool coping. Interestingly, while it is celebrated for its durability in Mediterranean climates, it is known to develop a soft, distinguished patina over time when exposed to the elements.
Each slab of Avalon in lot 135448 measures about 107″ × 67″. This is 5 cm grey with semi-white and white limestone quarried in Morocco with a leather finish, and 8 slabs are available at our Los Angeles yard.
This slab
The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 107″ × 67″, about 50 square feet. Thickness is 5 cm. The color on record is grey with semi-white and white. Natural stone still varies inside that description, so the slab itself is the reference for movement and shade. This material is recorded as quarried in Morocco.
The leather finish is lightly textured, with a softer look than a full polish. Five centimeters is a thick cut, suited to edges that need the extra depth.
In the yard
Lot 135448 at our Los Angeles yard shows 8 slabs in stock, none on hold, and 8 slabs available. Available means in stock minus slabs on hold.
The slabs can be compared in daylight at our Los Angeles yard before anything is cut.
Where it works
For this kind of stone, the usual applications are floors, wall cladding, and vanities. The right use still depends on the finish, the thickness, and how the slab will be cared for after it is installed. Inspiration photos show this stone in an Indoor Floor.
The material
Limestone is a sedimentary stone, usually calmer in pattern than marble, with a soft mineral color. It is more porous than granite and is a frequent choice for floors, cladding, and vanities. Honed and brushed finishes suit its matte character. Acidic products can etch it, and a sealer is often part of the care plan. Slabs from the same lot are the right set to compare for shade before they are cut.
