Description
Albus is a very bright, almost white material, pervaded with tiny, also very bright veins and dots. Depending on the layer of extraction, this stone can be found either in a full form, which is suitable for all kinds of surface finishing, or witha mildly cavernous surface which needs to be resinated in order to achieve a polished surface finish. The cavernous surface is also great for the ?antico“ finish – through the process of brushing, this finish gives the stone a special, decorative appearance. It also called Albus Stone,Petrada Hum Limestone . Albus Limestone can be processed into Honed, Aged, Polished, Sawn Cut, Sanded, Rockfaced, Sandblasted, Bushhammered, Tumbled and so on.
