Bright, Balanced & Timeless: A Product Spotlight on Colonial Tan Ashlar

Some stone makes a bold statement. Other collections create impact through balance.

Colonial Tan is a mix of brown, tan, and light grey that bring brightness and character to a project, without overpowering the surrounding design. Pairing Thinstone Veneer with the clean, structured lines of the Ashlar pattern, it creates a timeless look that feels refined and welcoming. Whether you're designing a new home, updating a fireplace, or creating an outdoor living space, Colonial Tan Ashlar offers the flexibility to complement a wide range of styles while delivering the authentic beauty of natural stone.

Bright, Natural Color That Works Anywhere

One of Colonial Tan's greatest strengths is its balanced color palette. The warm, neutral tones pair beautifully with painted siding, wood accents, brick, and other natural materials, making it easy to coordinate with traditional and contemporary homes. The subtle variation from stone to stone adds depth and character, while maintaining a cohesive overall appearance. 

The Appeal of the Ashlar Pattern
Pattern plays an important role in the finished look of any stone installation. Ashlar combines three different patterns for a more customizable blend of textures, colors, and shapes. It's a mix of small Squares from the Roughly Squares & Rectangles pattern, Strip, and Ledgestone. It also features the inside of the stone, which enhances the color range differently from the face of the stone (as typically seen in the Mosaic, Roughly Squares & Rectangles, and Strip patterns.) It's a favorite for homeowners and designers looking for a timeless aesthetic with just the right amount of architectural character.
