Emerson Limestone

Emerson Limestone is an excellent choice for interior and exterior applications. Because of its excellent properties and performance, and warm color, architects repeatedly specify this natural limestone for interior stone flooring, exterior paving stone, stone treads and risers, fireplace surrounds and stone wall cladding. Emerson Limestone is available in honed, polished, bush hammered and sandblasted finishes. It is also available in vein-cut form for certain applications.
