Types of Colors
Bluestone Pavers most common color is blue ranging to gray. Although, depending on how far down the depth of the stone is being quarried, the colors may vary. The further down the stone is quarried, the more noticeable the difference in color. This is when shades of purple, green, yellow, orange, and brown are spread throughout the blue-grey paver. |

So the further down the stone is quarried the more unique the Bluestone Paver becomes. The further up the stone is quarried the darker it gets in color. The colors are mainly blue, dark blue, gray, dark gray, and the two colors mixed together to form a blue-grey tone.
Bluestone Pavers can also be produced in natural earth tones, however, this is generally uncommon. This is due to the ever changing earth’s surface. The unique thing about Bluestone Pavers is that each Pavers differs from the next. Thus no two pavers are the same. They will each have varying shades and texturing. This is why Bluestone Pavers are mainly used outside because they sometimes vary in color and blend in with surrounding gardens to create a classical but unique piece. |
