Product Info
Plum Slate tiles are a beautiful medium gray with a blue-purple undertone. Whilst slate is usually cool-toned, the plum shade warms the stone, making it perfect for creating a homely and inviting feel. The color is fairly consistent throughout the stone. As with any natural material, there can be a slight variation, but the overall effect is uniform.
Slate is an incredibly versatile material. It has many functions, rather than design focussed, uses because of its hardwearing qualities. For example, it is often used as a roof tile to help protect buildings from harsh weather conditions. But the variety in its color and style means it is also regularly used to add an interesting feature to the home. Therefore, slate is suitable for a variety of applications, including heavy traffic flooring locations such as hallways and kitchens, as well as external uses. It makes a great feature wall tile in bathrooms and kitchens, the perfect backsplash for creating a nature-inspired design.
Slate is formed by layers of shale and mudstone undergoing changing pressure and temperature conditions. This causes the soft stone to solidify, forming a perfectly layered hard rock. It is the ideal material for creating tiles because it can easily be cleaved along its fault line, creating thin slabs.
A natural cleft face is the stone's rugged and earthy natural texture. It has fine bumps and grooves that provide a gorgeously rustic look, as well as a great level of traction. This makes the stone ideal for flooring, even in external applications such as porches and patios because it is unlikely to become slippery when wet.
Furthermore, a natural cleft face is one of our most durable finishes. Unlike a polished surface that will require periodic maintenance to keep its glossy shine, a naturally textured stone is innately dull and imperfect, ideal for those who have a busy lifestyle.
Plum slate creates a beautiful earthy design that looks great in every location throughout the home. Create a floor to ceiling tiled shower with a sleek glass screen and white walls. Add potted foliage for a nature-inspired design that will feel totally tranquil and relaxed. Alternatively, use it to create a stunning kitchen floor with a modern country look. Pair it with matte shaker style cabinets, a black granite countertop and sleek metallic elements for a luxurious combination of natural elements. This is a stone that can work with almost any design, a truly versatile material.
We save you money by consolidating your order with orders from people around you! Since our full truck goes straight from our warehouse to the warehouse closest to you without any transloading, it is also a safer way of moving goods. Additionally, this can result in tremendous freight cost savings.
How does it work:
As soon as we get your order we email you a confirmation with an up to date status of the full truck going to your local pickup warehouse - such as - “The next truck to Miami is estimated to leave in 2 weeks.” This allows you to plan ahead.
We then email you again when the truck is full and ready to ship out. This is our way of giving you about a week’s notice.
It’s Here! For SAVER Pickup orders we send you all the pickup information. Come and get it! For SAVER Delivery orders we send you local delivery tracking info. See you soon!

What if the warehouse closest to you doesn’t have the item you have selected in stock?
They can usually bring it in within a few days. If the manufacturer is willing to do this as a courtesy we will pass on that courtesy to you. If there are any fees for this we will let you know so you can decide. We always find out the exact timeline and email you to confirm if that is okay. If that doesn’t work for you then you will get a 100% refund. If it does, we proceed and email you when it is ready for pickup.
