Description

Black Slate (India) – Gauged is a natural stone tile known for its deep charcoal tone, subtle mineral layering, and naturally refined texture. The surface features soft variations of black and smoky grey, creating an elegant, grounded appearance that complements both contemporary and classic design styles. The gauged finish provides a more uniform thickness for smoother installation while preserving the stone’s organically cleft face, allowing it to maintain the authentic character slate is valued for.

This material performs exceptionally well in areas where durability and understated sophistication are equally important. Its textured surface offers natural grip and visual depth, making it suitable for kitchens, bathrooms, showers, mudrooms, laundry rooms, entryways, and select exterior applications. Slate’s inherent density and resistance to wear support long-term performance in both residential and commercial environments, even in high-traffic or moisture-exposed spaces.

The rich charcoal coloration pairs seamlessly with matte black hardware, brushed metal finishes, natural woods, concrete elements, stone countertops, and neutral or monochromatic palettes. As lighting shifts throughout the day, the surface reveals subtle highlights and mineral shadows, giving the installation quiet movement and organic dimension. Every tile carries unique tonal nuances, ensuring completed surfaces feel cohesive yet true to the natural variation of real slate.

Black Slate (India) – Gauged offers a balanced blend of rugged texture, clean structure, and timeless aesthetic appeal.
