This stone, which originates from Egypt, embodies a distinctly contemporary aesthetic. Its warm gray tones, along with the small fossil inclusions and veining, perfectly complement minimalist architecture and deliberately understated garden designs.

Notes
The material contains occasional iron inclusions and fine cracks; these are natural occurrences and are not grounds for a warranty claim. Due to the high salt content in the stone, the slabs may occasionally exhibit darker streaks or spots when unpacked, which will wash away over time when exposed to the elements outdoors. We therefore do not recommend using this stone in covered or partially covered areas.
Natural stone floors can be cleaned with a neutral cleaner or water. For further natural stone care products, please contact the specialist staff at your local specialist store.
Impregnations are significant interventions in the flooring construction and must therefore be separately approved by the respective manufacturers for the material to be impregnated.
