HANDMADE HAMMERED PIETRA GRAY MARBLE

Handmade Hammered Pietra Gray Marble

What is Handmade Hammered Pietra Gray Marble stone?
The first payment made by humans with stone-like blows on stone is now known in the current market as Handmade Hammered stone. The honing process of the stone is not only obsolete, but it remains as strong as before and is used on steps, facades, floors, landscaping, and building foundations. In this payment, by hitting the surface of the stone, nail-shaped scratches are created on it, which roughens the surface. This action increases the surface friction and, in addition to reducing surface slipperiness, makes the stone brighter. Also, the clutter of patterns of some stones (such as Gandmak marble and Peacock marble from Isfahan) is achieved with this method, making the stone surface appear more beautiful.

If the same stone is used at the base of a building, it is also called base stone.

Types of Handmade Hammered Pietra Gray Marble surfaces
Depending on the method of honing and the depth and pattern created on the stone surface, there are various models and types of this type of payment, including:

Single-honed: The surface of a single-honed stone is such that honing blows are struck in one direction and one time.
Double-honed: Unlike a single-honed surface, this model is more varied and is struck in two directions so that the surface of the stone is not clear.
If this process is done in two directions (horizontal and vertical), it is called “left and right honing”.
If these honing processes are done with a greater depth, they are called chiseling.
Another example is called patterned honing. This stone is one of the most beautiful honed stones for courtyard floors, landscaping, etc., which create symmetrical chiseled patterns on the stone after sandblasting.

Honing methods

In addition to manual methods, stone honing is also done mechanically. In fact, the demand of the consumer market determines the choice of these methods. However, in terms of speed of preparation, appearance, and price, there are slight differences between them. In the mechanical type, the speed of the process is higher, the price is lower, and the processed stone is brighter than the manual type. Also, the scratches created on the stone surface are more uniform.

For example, the mechanical honing of stones such as Samer marble (Samir limestone) and Chinilabid limestone has more demand. Whereas, manual honing in a stone like Lashter marble enjoys better demand.

Since among the above list, Lashter and Limebead have much higher demand than others, we briefly introduce them:

Handmade Hammered Pietra Gray Marble

Lashter stone is one of the popular stones that is extracted from the mines of Isfahan in two sorts of brown and black. It is known globally as Pietra Gray. The reason is the very similarity of this stone to Lashter. Lashter marble is one of the superior stones that can be applied to all payments (including polished, honed, leather, bush hammer, chisel). Lashter honed stone is one of the popular stones that has a lot of demand in the stone market. This stone is used for landscaping, parking floors, external stairs, building bases, and even facades. Interestingly, this high-quality stone has different prices depending on the type of payment. But what is certain is that the price of honed Lashter stone is much lower than its polished counterpart.

Limebead Honed Stone
If you want to introduce a sturdy stone that can withstand extreme cold and heavy rain, you will definitely hear the name of Chinilabid limestone. This stone is mined in the province of Isfahan and has various sorts and excellent physical characteristics. Limebead crystal, like Lashter, is processed in various slab and tile dimensions and due to its patterned nature, it can be matched and formed. In addition to being polished, this stone is also very popular as honed. If you live in a cold region and are looking for a resistant stone for courtyard floor, parking, stairs, etc., undoubtedly, Chinilabid limestone honed stone is the best choice.

The price of Lime Crystal Honed Stone is slightly higher compared to Lashter honed stone. But do not forget that one of the most important factors affecting the price of stone is the proximity of the mines to the factory.
Fortunately, Isfahan province has allocated a large share of this divine wealth (including marbles, crystals, travertines) to itself. Also, several industrial towns specialize in processing all kinds of building stones. For this reason, you can have the highest quality stones at the lowest prices.
