Product Spotlight: Nutmeg Ridge Mosaic Thinstone Veneer

Texture plays a powerful role in how a space is experienced. Nutmeg Ridge Mosaic Veneer leans into that idea, using irregular stone pieces to create surfaces that feel layered, tactile, and naturally composed. The result is a stone application that highlights craftsmanship, and adds character without overwhelming the design.

Nutmeg Ridge is a native Connecticut granite known for its durability, natural variation, and versatility, qualities that come through clearly in the Mosaic pattern.

The Nutmeg Ridge Collection features an earth-inspired color palette. Soft greys and warm tans form the base, layered with subtle brown tones and occasional golden undertones. The overall effect is warm and balanced with enough variation to create interest, without feeling busy. Because the stone is naturally formed, color and texture shift from piece to piece. The Mosaic pattern allows these changes to appear organically across the surface, resulting in installations that feel cohesive, dimensional, and unique to each project.

Why Choose the Mosaic Pattern

The Mosaic pattern uses smaller, irregular pieces arranged in a natural layout. The pieces range from .25 to 1.25 square feet. This format emphasizes texture and movement, making it a good choice for projects where surface detail and visual depth matter.

It’s especially effective when the goal is to:

  • Add texture without a rigid or uniform look

  • Highlight craftsmanship and natural material variation

  • Create a surface that feels intentional. but not overly formal

The scale of the Mosaic pattern also makes it adaptable—it works just as well on large exterior elevations as it does in more detailed interior applications!
