Description

Citadel Stone’s Black Basalt Bush-Hammered 12″ × 12″ is the natural stone hardscape specification of choice for projects across the United States that demand authentic natural material, anti-slip safety, and the all-climate weather resilience that only volcanic basalt delivers. The 12-inch square format is the most widely-specified residential paving proportion — sized for straightforward modular installation, suited to garden walkways and paths, residential pool decks and pool surrounds, family patios and courtyards, exterior steps, and the daily-use exterior surfaces where reliable wet-condition grip is the safety-critical priority. The bush-hammered finish is mechanically produced by impact tooling that strikes the stone surface to remove a controlled amount of material, leaving a deeply textured anti-slip surface with the dramatic sculptural character that distinguishes basalt from any lighter natural-stone alternative. Quarried from Citadel volcanic deposits in the Middle East — the world’s most weather-resilient basalt source — and prepared in our own facilities. No sealing required for any application; the dense crystalline structure of volcanic basalt is naturally weatherproof. Performs without restriction across every climate from tropical Florida and Hawaii to the cold-climate Northeast, Upper Midwest, and Mountain West states. The specification that delivers the longest service life with the lowest maintenance commitment available in natural stone.

Specifications

Color: Black
Finish: Bush-hammered
Size: 12″ × 12″
Origin: Middle East
Technical Details: Citadel volcanic basalt source. Our basalt is sourced exclusively from controlled Middle Eastern volcanic deposits that Citadel Stone has worked with for five decades. The structural integrity, density consistency, and colour uniformity reflect that long-term supply relationship. Standard residential format. The 12″ × 12″ square is the most widely-specified residential paving format, supported by predictable supply, straightforward installation, and broad pattern compatibility with the rest of the Citadel basalt range. Family-coordinated stone specification. The same Citadel basalt is available in multiple formats and finishes — 12″ × 12″, 24″ × 12″, slabs, cobbles, Belgian block, bullnose coping, curbing — supporting whole-project specification with material consistency from driveway through patio through pool coping in the same stone family. Climate-honest specification guidance. Citadel basalt is the all-climate specification with no caveats. We recommend basalt for projects in any USA climate without restriction, and recommend limestone or shellstone alternatives where their warm-climate aesthetic is genuinely the design priority. No sealing protocol — practical advantage clearly stated. The no-sealing-required performance is one of the principal practical advantages of basalt over limestone, marble, sandstone, and porous-stone alternatives. We disclose this clearly because it materially affects the lifetime maintenance commitment of the installation. Custom thicknesses and dimensions on request. Beyond the standard format range, this finish is available in any dimension and thickness required for project-specific work, including thicker formats for commercial vehicular paving and bespoke shapes for architectural feature work. Trade support for residential and light-commercial projects. Dedicated trade account programme for landscape designers, contractors, and architects working on residential and light-commercial hardscape projects across the United States. Nationwide US delivery and worldwide shipping. Coordinated logistics to all fifty states and to international destinations, with secure pallet packaging protecting every piece in transit. Escrow payment protection for new clients. First-time customers receive full payment protection through an escrow arrangement, providing complete financial security on the initial transaction. Five decades of natural stone expertise. Half a century of quarrying, finishing, and delivering premium Middle Eastern stone to projects worldwide — depth of experience that translates into reliable specification advice and consistent product quality.
