Natural Stone Online's 2024 best seller ... we have to take a minute for this product, because we have seen such a noticeable shift in our clients preference from Antiqued to Natural. What Natural finish product is it they're loving?
Traditionally our most popular finish for Minster Limestone has been antiqued, with its rich, aged qualities and patina. Minster Antiqued Finish is still up there on our top 10 products but in 2024 we have seen the Natural Finish Minster Limestone overtake as a new hero product!

Customers are choosing the natural finish as the perfect juxtaposition to their modern designs and interior styling, in both renovation projects and new builds. And in traditional properties and barn conversions they're favouring the Natural Finish for its weathered and rural qualities which bring both practicality and the perfect balance of style and respect for existing period features.

Minster Limestone is full of character with warm multi tones of olives, greys and browns allowing it to blend with a vast array of colour pallets. These tiles are split to their natural clefts and then lightly tumbled to leave a slightly softer and lighter colour palette than the Antiqued version. The natural finish presents a mildly coarser texture providing additional grip underfoot. Muddy dogs, and busy homes are no problem for this easy to maintain material.

Minster Natural Finish has all the great qualities you expect of a natural stone, durability, grip, character by the bucket load but its often chosen for high traffic areas and living/kitchen spaces because its so easy to maintain, will age well with use, and is suitable with all underfloor heating systems! This is a luxury product with a functional backbone and regardless of your budget or aesthetic, everyone loves a product that can do BOTH!

Minster Limestone is also suitable for external use and due to its 22mm (+/-2mm) depth and strength it can be installed on top of compacted hardcore using a sand and cement mix. The perfect patio stone - added grip comes from the natural weathering! It's also perfect for those wanting to create a seamless inside/outside space, something we see a lot in traditional properties.
