Bed Face / Seam Face
Irregular Flagging is generally 1 to 3 inches thick. It is often
used for patios, walkways, around pools, etc., generally in
areas limited to medium use foot traffic. Its shape is irregular,
or “mosaic”, and exhibits the seam face of the stone.
Split Face / Natural Bed
Height
Heavy Flagging is different from Irregular Flagging in that it is
thicker, generally 3 to 5 inches. It is used as paving stone in areas of
limited vehicular traffic and as flag stone in areas of particularly
heavy foot traffic. Available in South Bay Quartzite® only.
Wall Stone is a blocky stone used to construct exterior,
freestanding walls. This stone, installed, will exhibit both seam
faces and split faces. It can also be used with other natural
stone products for a completely individualized look.

Garden Bed Edging
Ashlar
Garden Bed Edging is basically the same as European ashlar
except in use. The intended use of this product is as curbing
for bordering driveways, walkways, lawns, gardens and the like
for a clean-cut and well-defined look. It is also used to encircle
trees and to aid in the prevention of erosion.

Sawn Thin Veneer is available in American Granite™, Corinthian
Granite®, Van Tassell Granite®, and South Bay Quartzite®.
Available patterns include random pattern mosaic, ashlar and
roughly squared/roughly rectangular veneers. Hand Select Thin
Veneer is available in South Bay Quartzite® in a random mosaic
pattern only. It is a naturally occurring thin stone, split not sawn
to its thin veneer specifications, and offers the installer two
usable faces for installation.
Ashlar Thin Veneer with matching corners
Champlain Stone’s unique collection of six distinct stones is
drawn from company-owned quarries located in the foothills
of New York’s historic Adirondack Mountains. Our quarriers
take great pride in their work and see to it that all the stone
excavated, hand-split, drilled, sawn or run through hydraulic
guillotines is consistent with our company’s strict specifications.
By embracing advances in technology, we are able to quarry and
manufacture our stone products to custom size, color range and
finish specifications. This attention to detail is complemented by
a premium level of service provided by our Sales & Marketing
team, Project Development group and support departments.
The resulting variety in our quality building and landscaping
stone products is distributed through select retailers across the
United States, Canada and Europe.

Champlain Stone, Ltd. offers a full line of natural stone products
for both thin and full-bed depth veneer applications, as well as
custom fabricated pieces.

Mosaic Pattern Thin Veneer (Rock Face)
Our sawing technology provides increased capabilities in
fabricating our stone to meet specific design needs. Custom caps,
water tables, sills, hearths, mantels, keystones and treads are just
a few of the many fabricated products available to compliment
our other stone products. However, some limitations do apply.
Whether full-bed or thin, split or rock-faced, simple or grand;
Champlain Stone can satisfy your creative stone requirements.
38
These products install easily on a wide variety of substrates and
are ideal for interior applications, remodels, or anywhere a fullbed depth foundation is missing or impractical. At an average
weight of 15 lbs. or less per square foot, our thin veneers meet
standard building code requirements for vertical load limitations
and therefore, do not require a bearing shelf. Champlain Stone
does however advocate the use of masonry approved wall ties
for insured application stability. Unlike their full-bed depth
counterparts, which are traditionally sold by the ton, Thin Veneers
are sold by either the square foot (flats) or lineal foot (corners).
Lineal foot measurements for sawn corners are taken along the
vertical “spine” of the stone, not the horizontal return.
