Can the Jerusalem White Limestone come in 24" x 24" and 24" x 30" tiles for an exterior wall application? If so, how thick is the material and what is an approximate SF price?

Why do you keep refering to the stone coming from Palistine? Do you mean Israel? No such place as Palistine exisits so how can you get stone from there?
