    Finishes

    3/3 selected
    Flamed: The temperature shock after flaming the tile leads to natural cracking on the surface. This gives the natural stone a rough texture.
    Polished: The shiniest and smoothest finish by far, which presents the colours, veins and fossil structures at their most visible and intense. A mirror effect is created in dark shades.
    Shot Blasted: One of our standard finishes which has antislip properties, a more rough appearance and a robust feel.

    Certified Origin. Proven Performance.

    Rose de la Clarté granite has been quarried from the Ploumanac'h basin near Perros-Guirec in Brittany since 1976, a region with centuries of granite extraction history. The coarse-grained red-pink stone is quarried in a sustainable and responsible manner, then processed into slabs, tiles, paving products, and monument work.

    Rose de la Clarté carries the IG (Indication Géographique) Granit de Bretagne certification, awarded by independent certification body Certipaq. This regional accreditation applies to all our Brittany quarries and recognises both the stone's origin and the craftsmanship behind its extraction.

    The granite's technical properties make it particularly well suited for external paving applications. Its low porosity and high compressive strength deliver lasting structural performance, and its colour stability outperforms alternatives such as porphyry, maintaining its characteristic red-pink tone under prolonged exposure. A material defined by origin, certified quality, and proven durability.
