Description

 

Amara is a light grey limestone with a soft, off-white tone and natural veining and fossil markings that give each piece its own character. The variation between tiles is part of what makes it work so well in large-format applications - no two surfaces read the same, which keeps big areas of paving or flooring from looking flat.

Available in both honed and textured finishes, Amara suits indoor flooring, outdoor paving, pool surrounds, and feature walls. The honed finish produces a smooth, refined surface suited to interior floors, bathroom walls, kitchen splashbacks, and covered alfresco areas. The textured finish provides grip underfoot and excellent slip resistance, making it a practical choice for pool coping, open courtyards, driveways, and stair treads. Limestone's low heat absorption means the surface stays comfortable underfoot even in full summer sun, which is part of why it's a consistent choice for pool decks and outdoor entertainment areas.

Amara is available in 900 x 450mm tiles and pavers, with matching copers, step treads, stepping stones, batons, and cobbles for a consistent finish throughout a project. Custom cutting, bullnosing, and stonemasonry services are available locally for projects requiring non-standard sizing.
