This slab

The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 120″ × 67″, about 56 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is beige, silver, and blue. 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.

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.

About Gascogne Blue

Gascogne Blue, also known as Moleanos Azul or Azul Valverde, is a prestigious limestone primarily quarried in the Alcanede region of Portugal. This natural stone is celebrated for its sophisticated blue-gray to charcoal tonality, accented by a fine-to-medium grain and a delicate scattering of small fossils. Its dense, compact structure provides exceptional durability, making it a global favorite for high-traffic flooring, elegant wall cladding, and exterior facades. Interestingly, the stone is extracted from the Serra de Aire e Candeeiros, a region featuring over 1,500 caves, which contributes to the unique mineral and fossil diversity found within every slab.
