I went over to the new South East London showroom yesterday and took some photos of current progress. Most of the planting is done now which has made a massive difference. We're getting more and more visitors each week which is great.

Some bespoke Basalt Coping that we made. The cuts were really precise so it was just like putting together a jigsaw puzzle on site.

This is the main set of steps so quite a prominent feature in the middle of the display. They are Buff Yorkstone steps with matching bespoke coping and four times weathered pier caps.

Image


This is the top section of the display which is reserved mainly for the Riven Sandstone products.

Another shot of the top section showing a sandstone circle and some handcut sandstone coping.

Can anyone from London Stone identify some flags in one of their pictures? They're on page 8, on the post from 5th June. Second picture, there's a black stone sphere. I'm looking at the flags below the stone that surrounds the sphere. They're like a buff/khaki colour. Ta

Hi Aalindo, the very pale stone which is surrounding the granite sphere is the Moleanos Limestone. We do two versions of this, Moleanos Beige and Moleanos Blue. To be honest that area has been changed now and I can't remember which one it was. They're both very similar but the Beige has slight pinkish veins and the Blue has grey/blue veins. If you like we can send samples so you can see them both.

Sorry, I meant to say they are on the website too if you click these links Moleanos Beige and Moleanos Blue

Bec,

Apologies for not being clear. I meant the flags below those that surround the sphere. Hopefully this works:

Ah OK, that's the New Riven Yorkstone. Really beautiful stone, one of my personal faves!
