Stone Textures

The texturing of stone is a fine art and we at De Ferranti love nothing more than playing with the surfaces and finishes of materials, in particular, stone.

Weaving, braiding, piercing, undulating, bumpy, rugged, rough, smooth, polished, waxy, aged, split-faced, chipped...

Stones often differ in hardness, so when we finish our assembled stone items by hand, by rubbing and polishing, we create a beautiful undulating surface texture that is impossible to recapture with a machine. We like to play with matt and polished combinations, combinations of differring textures, we use acids, sandblasting techniques, and believe it or not, sometimes we even 'kick' the items around the factory floor to provide texture.

Textures can be very subtle from Polishing, Honing, to our all time favourite in-between, our signature Egg Shell finish.

We have developed so many age-old to new techniques, so rest assured that at De Ferranti we will help you discover a texture to suit.
