Our bluestone, also known as blue-gray sandstone, is chosen from quarries in Florence, Italy for its attractive grayish-blue color and durability. This stone is very popular for outdoor paving or flooring, step treads, pool coping, outdoor countertops, fireplace hearths and surrounds, and architecture and water features. Bluestone can withstand all kinds of weather and fluctuating temperatures which makes it perfect for outdoor environments, water features and especially fireplaces.
