Bardenas square irregular slab: the order of a slab, the soul of stone
The Ribera of Navarre is a land of contrasts: vegetable gardens along the Ebro, the cierzo wind sweeping across the plain and, in the distance, the Bardenas Reales, a desert of clays and sandstones carved by wind and water over thousands of years. From a quarry in our area comes the Bardenas square irregular slab: square natural stone pieces, with edges and surface just as nature left them.
It is where order meets rustic: it is quicker to lay than crazy paving and gives a more regular floor, without losing the charm of traditional stone.
🎨 Two tones of the Ribera
Tierra: light, warm brown, the colour of the Ribera fields in summer.
Gris Cierzo: sober, elegant grey, like the sky when the cierzo blows.
✨ Why choose the Bardenas square irregular slab
Rustic yet orderly: square shape for fast progress, irregular edges for a natural look.
Natural surface with grip: its rough face helps you walk safely outdoors.
Natural and authentic: quarried stone, with no treatments or imitations. It ages well and gains character over the years.
Locally sourced: stone extracted in the Ribera of Navarre.
🏡 Where to use it
Terraces, patios and porches.
Garden paths and stepping areas.
Driveways, entrances and outdoor seating areas.
Pool surrounds.
🛠️ How to lay it
On sand or gravel (garden paths): dig out 10-15 cm, compact the ground, spread a layer of gravel and another of 3-5 cm of sand and bed each slab by tapping it with a rubber mallet. Fill the joints with sand or fine gravel.
With mortar (terraces and walkways): on a concrete base with a 1-2 % fall, lay each slab on a mortar bed, level it with a straightedge and fill the joints with mortar or grout.
Tip: as the thickness of each piece varies, adjust the mortar bed under each slab to leave the surface level. Mix pieces from different layers of the pallet.
⚠️ Pallet coverage
The 15 m² per pallet is approximate and depends on the joint width. Allow 10-15 % extra area for cuts, edges and fitting pieces.
🚚 Delivery
Sold by full pallet only. Unloading is done by a truck with a tail lift at street level, at the kerb: make sure there is a firm, level access area. Read the delivery conditions before placing your order.
🪨 Natural stone: every pallet is unique. Size, shape, thickness and tone vary from piece to piece and from the photos, which are for guidance only. Mix pieces from different layers of the pallet when laying to spread colours and shapes. It is the signature of an authentic material, not a defect.
