Generations of use and the passage of time have sculpted our reclaimed surfaces into unique and authentic pieces of incomparable character.

Truly remnants of French History, our Antique Dalle de Bourgogne first, second and third face stones have an incomparable character with their warm color range, random sizes and unique patina.

True pieces of history, these coveted materials endow any project with an added dimension of authenticity and antiquity.
