Bluestone Cobbles-Tumbled

Tumbled bluestone cobblestone pavers have the softened edges and rounded profile of a street that has been walked on for generations, and the tumbling gives them a matte, almost velvety face. The color is deep slate, charcoal and smoke with occasional warm sand notes scattered through. Up close the fine grain reads tight and natural; from a distance the field is quiet and even.

The format is a nominal 4 by 4 inch cobble, 1 1/2 to 3 inches thick depending on the lot, sold by the square foot. It is new bluestone selected from a European workshop and tumbled before it reaches us, so corners are eased and joints look relaxed without losing their line. The small module bends around curves and makes graceful borders without awkward cuts; tell us the use and we will advise on thickness.

Use it for a pool terrace, an arrival court, or a garden path where a cooler stone with a worn finish is wanted, with white plaster, black steel and aged oak around it. It also makes a handsome cobblestone driveway over a proper base. Samples of the cobblestone pavers are in Marina Del Rey; send your square footage and we will quote it delivered.
