Tell me about the stone

A highly pigmented, rich red, Multi Color Red slate is ideal for adding a touch of warmth to your design. It has a beautiful variation in shade, with some stones displaying a soft pink color and pale creams. On the other end of the spectrum, we have a dark and luxurious red that will add vibrancy to your design. The stone's shading is highly irregular, and therefore no two tiles will ever be the same. This is the beauty of a natural stone, its variation adds a unique charm that cannot be replicated by man-made materials.

Slate is one of the hardiest stones available. It has a densely packed fine grain and is more than capable of standing up to the wear and tear of family life. It is often used for applications that require a hardworking material. For example, one of its most famous uses is as a roof tile. This allows it to display its ability to resist the elements, one that is often underestimated. Slate is, therefore, suitable for flooring in all areas of the house, including high traffic locations such as hallways and kitchens. But the options don't stop there. Multi Color red slate's gorgeous coloring makes a great feature wall, backsplash, or fireplace.

Tell me about the tile's finish

This vibrant stone has a finish that matches its earthy and rugged design. A natural cleft face retains the grooves and ridges created by the stone's formation process. For this reason, it cannot be man-made, it is the result of cleaving the tiles along their layers. This is a great option if you're looking for a stone that will display its rustic origins.

But the benefits don't stop there. A natural cleft face is one of the best value for money finishes on the market. This begins with its initial price point. Because the stone does not require laborious refinement, it's a great starting point for those on a low budget. But the value continues even as the stone begins to age. It's an incredibly low maintenance finish, unlike a glossy polished stone that may need regular upkeep. A naturally textured surface is intended to be imperfect, therefore wear and tear only add to the stone's effect.

Furthermore, it's also a practical tile because of the level of traction it affords. The tiles are unlikely to become slippery when wet because the surface provides sufficient grip. This is great for those who have a busy family lifestyle and need a stone that will function effectively.

These tiles also have a natural back and therefore there may be some variation in the thickness of the tiles.

What overall look will I achieve?

The vibrant hue of Multi-Color Red slate is ideal for pairing with a warm and traditional design. Incorporate white or ivory walls with dark wooden furniture and ethnic patterned soft furnishings for a cozy and relaxing environment. Alternatively, used outside it can create a stunning patio area that will exude summer heat all year long.
