Desert Beige

Considered a type of marble, Desert beige is a metamorphic rock very adaptable to any environment. Often confused as a sedimentary rock, this type of stone when polished can achieve optical characteristics very similar to limestone. What ends up marking the differences when it comes to its technical characteristics. This type of marble has a brownish tone with some very distinct formation lines. Directly from Oman, this type of marble will certainly make a difference when applied in any environment.

Finishings

Leather

Brushing the slab with a range of brushes and the result is a slightly undulating surface, very soft, warm and smooth to the touch.

Sandblasted

Blasting silica sand against the material through an air gun and generates very small craters.

Polished

Abrasive treatments with repeated applications result in a shiny surface, highlights the colour and properties of the natural stone.

Sawn

Rough and irregular surface with small furrows and undulations in a mate tone.

Bushammered

Hitting the material, with a masonry tool called a bush hammer, that generates uniformly distributed craters of different sizes over the surface of natural stone.

Honed

A honed finish is identical to the polished finish, the surface is smooth but without glare or light reflections.

Brushed

Abrasive brushes under high pressure generate a touch-sensitive and smooth surface of natural stone.

Scratched

Scratched finish is applied so that the surface exhibits a texture with straight reliefs and natural colours.
