Granite
Even in early times, cobblestones or cobblestones were used for paving roads. Granite cobblestones can be recognized by its regular cut shape and its glistening grain. This regularity in shape can be explained by the fact that this rock is mechanically cleaved. The advantage of this paving material is that it is rock hard and hardly needs any maintenance. To create pavement or driveways in classic style, granite cobblestones are the ideal solution.
Porphyry
Porphyry is a very hard rock and is a form of granite. However, this igneous rock contains large crystals, minerals and uneven grains. As a result, the texture is coarser. Porphyry cobblestones are often used in the construction of streets due to their hardness and resistance to pressure and wear. These hand-crafted pavers have a distinctive appearance that creates a characteristic streetscape. In addition, they are also suitable as railroad ballast. These porphyry cobblestones can also be used as ornamental stones for laying a driveway or as ornamental stones in the garden The colors of porphyry cobblestones range from gray and green to blue.
Gres
Belgian vitrified clay cobblestone is mostly supplied as recycled cobblestone. This is because since the early 1960s this natural stone has no longer been quarried in the Belgian quarries. The vitrified cobblestone is a type of sandstone that wears off nicely because it is a relatively softer stone. As a result, this hand-cut cobblestone is beautifully flat and also has a distinctive character. It has unique colors created over the years, which new cut cobblestones do not have. This decorative stone is mostly used for paving and driveway construction. The colors in which the vitrified cobblestone is available are gray-brown-ochre.
Basalt
Basalt cobbles or cobblestones are created from igneous rock and are similar to granite. Because this type of natural stone has undergone rapid solidification, it is compact and has an even appearance. Because of its hardness, basalt cobblestones or cobblestones are hard-wearing and weather-resistant, making them great for laying driveways and streets. The colors in which basalt is available are light gray, dark gray or black.
Bluestone
Bluestone is often characterized by its gray or blue-gray color. Limestone cobblestones are characterized by an even surface and, as the name suggests, are hard-wearing. This limestone is weatherproof and also resistant to frost. The hard stone cobblestones contain markings of fossils and white crystals. Stone is suitable for decorative use for paving your patio, garden or driveway. The bluestone we offer is mostly Belgian or Chinese bluestone.
