Antique Bluestone Cobble - Los Angeles, CA

The rustic textures of Antique Bluestone Cobblestone are contrasted with smooth concrete to create a unique entrance and motor court, showing that ancient and modern can look beautiful together. These rare cobblestones were harvested from Pennsylvania streets dating back to the 1700s. Soft shades of blue and grey are eminently versatile.

Antique Bluestone Cobble - Pittsburgh, PA

Local history was preserved for the future at this historic home in Pittsburgh. The cobblestones were collected from the same city for the ultimate hometown connection. After centuries of foot, horse and wheeled traffic, their top surfaces are worn smooth for comfortable use by 21st century generations.

Antique European Blend Cobblestone - Atherton, CA

To create the look of an Old World street with minimal upkeep, this homeowner chose Antique European Blend Cobblestones for their driveway. Made of the hardest building stone on earth, they require no more than a quick sweep or hose-down to look their best. An exceptional color range from purple to grey is available.

Antique European Blend Cobblestone - Montecito, CA

You'd think you're standing in a quaint European village; and in fact, the driveway's cobblestones were imported from the Old World. For this property, soothing shades of grey coordinate with the stone walls. Antique European Blend Cobblestones are made from granite, so they can easily handle vehicular traffic or extreme weather.

Antique European Blend Granite Cobblestone - Denver, CO

Denver's snowy, icy winters are no match for these extremely durable granite pavers. We import them from Europe, where they have already seen many decades — if not centuries — of service without being fazed. Part of their charm is the captivating variegations in shades of grey and purple.

Beautiful yet subtle, this exterior installation showcases the capabilities of these cobblestones in both traditional and modern settings.

Antique Pink Cobblestone - Minnesota

One-of-a-kind pink quartzite combines warmer brick-like tones with the outstanding durability of stone. The only evidence of these cobblestones' 150+ years of service in a historic street is slightly polished upper surfaces from contact abrasion. It was a smart choice for a northern climate, as well as any designer who wants an individual look.

Antique Salt and Pepper Granite Cobblestone - Los Angeles, CA

Cool grey and chalk tones with black flecks make a striking, yet neutral counterpoint to almost any style of architecture and landscaping. The cobblestones' random lengths and varied shades make every installation unique. Granite is the hardest building stone on earth, perfect for driveways and other traffic- and weather-exposed sites.

Antique Salt and Pepper Granite Cobblestone - Miami, FL

Taking their name from the black flecks which spice up the cobblestones' soft grey and chalk shades, these cobblestones imbue the driveway with Old World atmosphere. Irregular wear patterns and lengths proclaim them genuine vintage materials saved from historic streets. They're prized for their durability and easy care.

Antique St Louis Granite Cobblestone - Los Angeles, CA

We rescued these genuine vintage cobbles from historic St. Louis streets so that future generations could continue to enjoy their beauty and utility. Their jumbo size and very worn, rounded tops can't be imitated with modern materials. This rare collection features multi-hued tones of reddish brown through grey.

Enjoy the craftsmanship displayed in this gently winding, uphill driveway, including the accents of diagonally laid pavers.

Their soft shades of grey and beige complement the natural landscaping.

Old English Cobblestone - Fingerlakes NY

Perfectly complementing the home's rustic barn wood exterior are cobblestones with an Old World aura and a local provenance. They were cut from Medina sandstone, which was quarried in the New York State/Ohio area and popular for its exceptional durability. Muted browns, tans and plums echo the colors of the forest landscape.

Old English Cobblestone - Maryland

Here we see how versatile Old English Cobblestones can be, as they look just as charming next to an elegant antebellum-style Greek Revival portico as they do with a rustic barn conversion. Made of durable Medina sandstone, they were quarried in Ohio and used extensively throughout the Eastern states in the 19th century.

Old Charlottesville Cobblestone - Charlottesville, VA

The warm tan and golden colors of these reclaimed sandstone cobblestones make a welcoming contrast to the surrounding landscape and residential buildings. Their weathered texture can't be replicated in a modern product. This homeowner chose the US- style rectangular shapes; they're also available in European-style squares.

Old Charlottesville Cobblestone - Gilroy, CA

For this Mediterranean-style villa with sienna walls and clay tile roof, Old Charlottesville gold sandstone cobbles provide a perfect color harmony.
