Elevate your outdoor space with the exquisite Rippon Buff Indian sandstone paving slabs, a favoured variant of Indian sandstone that boasts undeniable popularity for compelling reasons. The natural splendour of its hues, intricate veining, and underlying buff shades varies distinctly within each slab, bestowing every paving stone with an exclusive array of patterns and variations, all derived organically.
With a warm sandy-brown base, this natural stone paving boasts captivating crimson and lavender undertones, creating an enchanting interplay of colours. Its resilience shines in all weather conditions due to the inherently grainy surface, enhancing slip resistance and guaranteeing safety even when confronted with water or frost. The stone's hues further flourish in damp settings, revealing even more captivating and distinctive tones not found in other natural stones. Furthermore, this stone demands minimal upkeep, merely necessitating a basic soapy-water solution to preserve its magnificence.
Riven surface is created when the stone is split along its natural layers, providing a truly authentic finish. This process leaves beautiful variations in texture throughout the surface of each slab — one of the main appeals of riven sandstone paving. Each riven slab features hand-dressed edges which add to the natural, organic look and create a timeless appeal for any traditional design. This style is suited to traditional settings and is a great alternative to Yorkstone, whilst also being less expensive.
Sawn sandstone is sawn straight off the block rather than being split naturally. The sawn slabs are cut down to size and the top surface is honed, creating a smooth finish with a slight sheen. Our smooth sandstone paving is sawn on all 6 sides, meaning the 4 edges are also straight and machine-cut to complete the contemporary look. Sawn paving offers an entirely different appeal to riven, with more pronounced patterns and colours across the surface, and a natural level of slip resistance when properly maintained.
