On hold at our Los Angeles yard: Pierre Brun, a 2 cm grey with brown limestone from Italy in a honed finish. Lot 2/1 measures about 117″ × 69″.

This slab

The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 117″ × 69″, about 56 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is grey with brown. 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 Italy.

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 Pierre Brun

Pierre Brun, also known as Combe Brune, is a refined Italian limestone distinguished by its sophisticated gray palette and dense, uniform texture. This natural stone is celebrated for its versatility, featuring a range of light gray hues that occasionally transition into warm hazelnut undertones. Its compact structure makes it an exceptional choice for high-traffic areas, including luxury flooring, wall cladding, and durable countertops. While its aesthetic is modern and minimalist, the stone’s organic origin is evidenced by subtle variations and occasional fine marine fossils. Interestingly, despite its sleek appearance, this limestone is remarkably wear-resistant and easy to maintain with simple care.
