Creme Du Provence is a refined limestone characterized by a warm, neutral palette of beige and cream. Renowned for its fine-grained, compact structure, it often features subtle ripples and occasional delicate fossil traces that provide a sense of depth and natural charm. This versatile stone is a favored choice for both classical and contemporary designs, frequently used for elegant flooring, wall cladding, and custom interior architectural details.
Interestingly, this stone captures the sun-drenched aesthetic of its namesake region in southern France, a land where Roman engineers once utilized local limestone to build enduring monuments and aqueducts that still stand today. Its soft, matte-like finish develops a beautiful patina over time, echoing the timeless grace of the Provençal landscape.
On hand at our Los Angeles yard: 13 slabs of Creme Du Provence, a 2 cm beige with ivory and cream limestone in a honed finish. Lot M2344 measures about 117″ × 79″.
This slab
The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 117″ × 79″, about 64 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is beige with ivory and cream. Natural stone still varies inside that description, so the slab itself is the reference for movement and shade.
The honed finish is smooth and matte, without a high gloss. Two centimeters is a standard slab thickness for counters, vanities, and wall cladding.
In the yard
Lot M2344 at our Los Angeles yard shows 13 slabs in stock, none on hold, and 13 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 a 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.
