Description
Gascogne Mix Limestone is a fine to medium-grained natural stone that exhibits a blend of earth beige, bluish-gray, and earthy gray tones, with subtle blue shades. Quarried in Portugal, this limestone features small fossil fragments scattered throughout its surface, giving it a natural, organic texture. The mix of warm beige and cool bluish-gray hues creates a balanced, earthy appearance, making it versatile for various design applications. Its timeless, neutral color palette and natural fossil accents make it a popular choice for flooring, wall cladding, countertops, and outdoor spaces, offering both durability and aesthetic appeal.
