What to Expect When Buying Standard Brazilian Black Riven Slate Slabs
Brazilian riven slate slabs are produced from large blocks of slate which are hand-split using a hammer and chisel, creating their distinctive natural riven surface. As a natural stone, every slab is unique and may vary in colour, texture and overall appearance. Features such as riven texture, colour variation, blotching, raised mineral areas and surface markings are all natural characteristics of Brazilian slate.
When picking your order—whether a single slab or a full crate—our warehouse team carefully inspects each piece and removes any economical-grade slabs. This means your order will include a selection of Premium and Standard quality pieces, with each slab having its own unique appearance.
The photographs shown are intended to provide the best representation of what you can expect to receive. However, Brazilian slate is a natural product with millions of unique variations, meaning no two slabs are exactly alike. The images should therefore be used as a guide only, and the slab you receive will have its own individual appearance.
