Here’s a primer on four of our most popular choices and a few ideas for stone veneer home projects that each is particularly suited to.

MANUFACTURED STONE VENEER BRICK

Product Characteristics

Regular and symmetrical patterns with a half-inch grout joint create a calming sense of visual order. Three profile colors let you go neutral, rustic or contemporary with a brick stone veneer.

GRANITE STONE VENEER

Product Characteristics

Granite stones vary in height and width, adding greater drama to the consistent uniformity of brick. The classic look of granite adds a touch of rustic charm while remaining subtly symmetrical. The neutral tones of Luce color keep this choice timelessly elegant.

Recommended Applications

Elevate a transitional living room with a granite accent wall or spice up a traditional kitchen with granite surrounding the island. This is also a great choice for a lower-level bar or wine cellar, thanks to its roots in ancient architecture.

LEDGESTONE

Level up the dramatic effect with the rough dimensional surface of Ledgestone. Varying heights and depths create contrasting shadows that provide endlessly intriguing visual interest. A choice of seven profile colors lets you go subtle or eye-catching with this versatile stone veneer type.

Inspired by stones from the highlands of New England, this stone veneer type is ruggedly handsome. Irregular shapes and distinct textures come alive in three rich color choices for naturally beautiful stone veneer panels.

Recommended Applications

Enhance your home’s traditional appeal with a Fieldstone fireplace that climbs all the way to the ceiling. Warm up a contemporary interior with a Fieldstone accent wall displaying your flat-screen TV or adding depth and charm to the foyer.

READY TO START YOUR CUSTOM STONE VENEER PROJECT?

Choosing the profile for home interior stone veneer projects is personal and subjective. And it’s definitely not something you want to do solely online. Lighting and editing can skew the color, and there’s simply no way to experience stone veneer texture on a digital device. Get a feel for manufactured stone veneer products in person by finding a reputable Casa di Sassi distributor near you. Whether you’re transforming a basement into usable recreational space or giving your main living areas a much-needed makeover, the professional installation of stone veneer accents is an easy, cost-effective way to increase ROI on a home improvement investment.
