Seagrass is a warm sandy-beige limestone scattered with organic fossil-like markings.
The colour is a warm sandy-beige, softened by taupe undertones, so it reads as an earthy natural neutral. Scattered fossil-like markings run through the stone, irregular and organic, which is exactly the character limestone is prized for. Over a large floor or wall it reads as a calm, sandy neutral from a distance, with the fossil detail rewarding a closer look. It suits natural, organic and coastal schemes, and pairs well with timber, rattan, linen tones, brass and greenery.

Where it works
Limestone is a softer, more porous stone, so it wants sealing and a bit of care, and acids will etch it much like a marble. Its strength is a natural, matte, understated look that travertine and marble do not quite give. The earthy character suits it to bathrooms, feature walls, living floors and, depending on the finish and how hard-wearing the particular stone is, outdoor and alfresco areas where a natural, non-slip surface is wanted. The sandy tone brings warmth without going cream, which makes it a strong fit for coastal and natural schemes. The recommended applications for this stone are still being confirmed, so contact us and we can advise on the right fit for your job, indoors or out.
Choosing a finish
Available finishes: Available in polished, honed, tumbled, honed and tumbled, or sandblasted and tumbled finishes, each highlighting the limestone’s soft earthy tones, natural fossil patterns, and distinctive organic character.
As a guide with limestone, a honed finish gives a smooth, natural matte face that suits internal floors, walls and living areas, and shows the fossil detail cleanly. A brushed or textured finish adds grip underfoot, which makes it the safer pick for wet areas, pool surrounds and outdoor use. Limestone is not usually polished the way marble is, since the matte, natural look is the point. If you are unsure which finish fits your project, give us a call and we can talk it through.
