English Flint
Paris Ceramics could not resist breathing new life into quintessential English flint, pairing its primal geology with contemporary fabrication. We hand-select nodules for tone, translucence, and the classic conchoidal fracture, then knap, saw, and calibrate them into slabs and tiles—with select ranges offered as interlocking modules for seamless fields. Faces may be left hand-knapped for a lively, faceted read or precision dressed (honed or polished) for quieter uniformity; edges and corner returns are produced in-house to maintain continuous lines. Locally sourced from southern chalk belts and made alongside Norfolk master flint-knappers, our flint retains its dark, glassy lustre while meeting modern tolerances and repeatability. Ideal for feature walls, fireplaces, and exterior detailing, it’s a sustainable, tactile surface that feels both ancient and current. Our R&D continues: we’re developing new treatments and pairings—including flint combined with pyrites—to extend the palette and possibilities.
