RAW YET REFINED
The India Black 24x24 Natural Cleft Slate Tile celebrates the grounded beauty of slate in a large square form. Quarried and cut in India using the traditional splitting process, its raw surface features organic texture with considerable variation in shading and thickness (a gauged back makes for a more uniform installation process). Durable and slip-resistant, it’s ideal for kitchens, entryways, and outdoors.A clean break
Its distinct foliation—the repetitive layering of metamorphic rock—allows slate to split easily along parallel lines.
Naturally non-slip
Because it’s split instead of cut, slate has an uneven surface texture known as cleft—a unique look that also provides traction.
-
CLASSIC COOL TONES
The India Black collection showcases the simple beauty of slate with a subtle range of cool tones and charcoal hues. This collection features two finish types: a fully textured natural cleft and a softened, more refined tumbled, both of which boast the unique variations in shading and thickness that slate is known for. In a full suite of formats, India Black delivers understated elegance. -
BEAUTY IN LAYERS
Formed from fine layers of clay or volcanic ash, slate is prized for its ability to break into thin, flat sheets—a property that's made it a prized material for roofs, floors, and even chalkboards (coining the phrase “a clean slate”). Durable, weather-resistant, and with a naturally high-grip surface texture, it remains popular outdoors and in high-traffic indoor spaces. Designers admire its ability to skew both rustic and modern, dressing up or down in accordance with the space it's in.
