Hardscapes
Iowa Buff Limestone is a Dolomitic limestone formed over several hundred
million years. It is distinguished by its uniform texture, color, and
banding, its durability and most of all by its distinct veining. These
characteristics make limestone an ideal building and landscape stone.
The color classification is Buff, which is described as a warm shade of
light to moderate gold.
The color range is very narrow which creates a singular visual impact. The
color range is further reduced by our ledging and fabrication process. The
final products are produced randomly from several blocks and slabs of stone.
The minimal color range creates a spread of color that eliminates any
patchwork pattern that can be created by many other natural stone products.
