• Buff
  Traditional buff color ranging from cream to light brown with some veining and grain movement visible in the face.
• Full Color Blend
  A natural compilation of the full range of buff to light gray shades with the same great subtle veining.
• Silver Buff
  Clean buff color with a subtle silver colored veining in the foreground.
• Gray
  Varies in color from light to dark shades of gray with visible veining in the face.
• Variegated

Grade classifications for Indiana limestone are based on the degree of fineness of the grain particles and other natural characteristics that make up the stone. The structural soundness of each grade of Indiana Limestone is essentially identical.

• Select
  Fine grained stone having a controlled minimum of inclusions and veining.
• Standard
  Average to large grained stone permitting an average amount of inclusions and veining.
• Rustic
  Large to coarse-grained stone permitting an above average amount of inclusions and veining.
