We hand-selected volcanic slate from England’s Lake District, sourcing unique pieces of 300 million-year-old stone. Originally rough in texture, honed slate undergoes a grinding and polishing process to give it a smooth finish. Our designers created this look in a neutral tone to allow the linear markings and fractured features to shine through. Add history to your home, without the maintenance, with our Honed Oyster Slate. These 12″ x 18″ rigid core tiles feature waterproof K-Core® technology and include a light gray painted bevel. Looking for this color in our gluedown format? View ST17.
