Dry stones - Cénevières
Dry stones - Cénevières are quarried in highly stratified layers or “benches” from our various quarries, these stones naturally break up into elements of disparate sizes and shapes 6 to 20 cm thick and 15 to 50 cm in length. They are sorted by screening. Exportable faces are naturally present, but it is the installer who will have to retouch them with a mallet to adapt them finely to the work.
Several shades are available depending on the origin of our quarries :
- Auberoche : pierre sèche ocre nuancé
- Cénevières : gray dry stone and orange ocher
These stones, called dry stones, can nevertheless be built with lime mortar or even jointed if the style demands it.
All-round, calibrated from 20 to 35 cm deep / medium format.
Exploded finish.
