Bridge Cut

Stone Slab

A stone slab is a large-format sawn natural-stone sheet used for countertops, cladding, and vanity tops. Thickness (2 cm / 3 cm) and finish are ordered with the slab.

Vein Cut

Vein cut orients the block so the face runs parallel to the stone’s veins or bedding. The slab shows linear banding along the cut—classic for dramatic vein lines.

Cut To Size Stone

Cut-to-size stone is fabricated to specified dimensions (treads, sills, panels) rather than only stock tile or slab formats. Dimensions and finish are stated on the order.

Stair Tread

A stair tread is the horizontal stone step surface (and often the nosing) fabricated for stairs. Turkish: basamak; Spanish: peldaño or huella. Thickness, finish, and edge profile are order fields.

Cross Cut

Cross cut orients the block across the bedding or structural direction, not parallel to the veins. The face usually looks more clouded or flecked than vein cut.

Stair Riser

A stair riser is the vertical stone face between successive stair treads. Height, finish, and matching tread nosing are specified together on cut-to-size orders.

Raw Stone Blocks

Raw stone blocks are unprocessed quarry blocks held for later sawing into slabs or cut-to-size pieces. Size and soundness matter more than finish.

Paver

A paver is an individual outdoor paving stone or slab unit for terraces, paths, and plazas. Thickness, finish, and joint layout are specified for traffic and weather.

Vein Cut Travertine

Vein-cut travertine is sawn parallel to bedding so pores and veins form linear bands on the face. Fill and finish (honed, brushed, filled) are still ordered separately.

French Pattern

French pattern (Versailles pattern) is a modular mixed-size paving layout using several tile formats in a repeating set for terraces and floors.

Kerf

A kerf is a narrow saw-cut groove in stone that receives an anchor or fixing device—common in cladding systems. Fabrication detail, not a face finish.

Window Sill

A window sill is a cut-to-size stone piece forming the horizontal base of a window opening—thickness, drip edge, and finish are order details.

Cross Cut Travertine

Cross-cut travertine is sawn across bedding so pores appear more scattered and the face looks cloudier than vein cut. Fill and finish still need separate specification.

Marble Tiles

Marble tiles are modular pieces cut from marble for floors and walls. Orders specify selection, finish, thickness, and size. Spanish: baldosas de mármol.

Ashlar

Ashlar is precisely dressed prismatic natural-stone masonry blocks with square edges. Construction/unit term, not a polished slab finish.

Coping

Coping is stone capping along wall tops, pool edges, or parapets. Profiles (bullnose, etc.) and finish are specified for weather and traffic exposure.
