Why is honed slate only available in the standard selection ?
Honed slate ultimately begins as a natural riven slab; subsequent machining processes applied to the surface transform it into a honed slab.
Unlike natural riven slate, where two selection options are offered ie, standard and premium. Honed and indeed brushed slate uses the selection we class as standard.
The reason for this is because honed and brushed slate require greater variation in colour, tone and texture to show their character. If we used the premium selection we would lose the essence of what makes these finishes really "pop"

To illustrate the features of a typical honed slab, check out the following video and pictures taken of a 1200 x900 x 20mm honed slab. This serves as a good representation of what you can expect to receive if you order a honed slab.
Look at the surface when we apply a dampy cloth. Look how the whole slab comes to life. You simply would not get this pattern with a natural riven slab.
The unique cloud-like markings look like they are paintings - amazing.
When we hone the slab, this is typical of what you would get.
The grains are exposed and almost always exhibit these cloud-like markings.
The markings are further emphasised when the surface is sealed.
