Antique Dalle de Bourgogne limestone flooring is reclaimed from properties in the Burgundy region of France, an area almost as famous for its stone as for its wine.

This is a very hard stone. Originally produced by splitting the stone into regular shapes rather than by sawing it, it was then finished by hand. The unique patina of the stone derives from the original natural beds in which the limestone formed during the Jurassic period.

The stone often contains iron and other oxides, which lend the stone its attractive earth tone colourings. Antique Dalle de Bourgogne varies from beiges and warm coppers to medium and dark silvery greys. The flagstones are laid in a truly random fashion. A typical random floor will have reclaimed size pieces that vary. This floor can range in thickness from 2 cm to 3 cm.

Sizes and colours vary to ensure that no two floors are identical. Antique Dalle de Bourgogne Mosaic is also available in approximately 3 x 3 cm tesserae, mesh backed on 30 x 30 cm sheets.

Antique Dalle de Bourgogne Limestone Flooring with Depth

The authority of Antique Dalle de Bourgogne limestone flooring lies in the balance between geological hardness and human wear. Its random format creates movement, while the colour range gives each installation a quiet complexity that feels gathered rather than designed.

As part of the Antique Reclaimed Stone Flooring collection, this is one of the defining French limestone floors in the Paris Ceramics archive.

Because this floor is reclaimed, each batch must be judged on its own merits. Colour, thickness, wear and available quantity vary, giving period houses, entrance halls, kitchens and restoration-led interiors rare depth.
