Sand Stone
Sandstone is a versatile and widely used natural stone in construction and landscaping. It is commonly used for elevations, pathways, wall cladding, covering drains, and various decorative architectural elements.
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock composed mainly of sand-sized mineral particles, typically quartz and feldspar. It is known for its relatively soft texture, which makes it easy to carve and shape, yet it remains durable and weather-resistant, making it suitable for both interior and exterior applications.
Sandstone is available in a range of earthy and warm colors, with the most common shades being:
Red
Pink
Yellow
White
Grey
Popular varieties of Indian sandstone include:
Dholpur – Known for its fine texture and shades of red and pink
Bansi Paharpur – Often found in rich pink hues, traditionally used in heritage structures
Mint – A light-colored sandstone with subtle greenish tones, perfect for modern designs
With its natural beauty, affordability, and workability, sandstone is a timeless choice for both traditional and contemporary architecture.
