Tennessee Crab Orchard Flagstone
Is an especially hard, weather resistant variety of sandstone due to unusually high concentrations of silica. The stone’s exclusive buff, tan, blue-gray and pink colors were created by a mixture of iron, titanium and magnesium, and the yellow and brown swirls that give the stone its one-of-a-kind appearance come from iron stains and natural weathering. It is gritty, non-slip surface and brilliant-when-wet colors make it a popular choice for pool decks, walkways, flooring, patios and stairs. The stone’s attractive colors make it a perfect accent solution for fireplaces, veneer, stacking, facing or other high visibility surfaces.
