Antique Finish (Flamed & Brushed)

Antique finish granite starts as a flamed surface, then passes under abrasive brushes that knock down the sharp, jagged peaks left by the flame. The brushing softens the texture into something more rounded and comfortable underfoot and to the touch, while leaving the surface irregularity that gives flamed granite its grip — so the slip resistance carries over even as the roughness eases. The result sits between a raw flamed finish and a smooth honed one: textured enough to grip, refined enough not to feel industrial.

Key Features and Benefits

• Softer than flamed, same grip: Brushing removes the loose, sharp fragments a flame leaves behind, so the surface feels gentler underfoot without losing the slip resistance flaming provides.

• More uniform texture: The brushing evens out the flamed surface into a consistent finish rather than the more variable, jagged result flaming alone produces.

• Retains flaming's weather durability: The stone underneath is unchanged by the extra step, so it holds up outdoors the same way a flamed surface does.

• A refined middle ground: Suits spaces that want the safety of a textured finish without the rugged, quarry-fresh look of raw flamed stone.
