Product Description 

Our flagship range of premium slate quarried from the renowned region of Minas Gerais in Brazil. All tiles can be traced back to the actual blocks they were cut from! This ensures superior quality and consistency With sawn edges and a subtle riven surface our slate is suited to both traditional and contemporary schemes. We have our own production team in Brazil and sell Brazilian slate in the UK and other European countries under our brand RioSlate. Working this way gives us a lot of buying power so we can often provide a much better quality product for less.
