Grinding Options: Uniform
The finishes we create through variations in the grinding process are emblematic of our attention to detail and our commitment to crafting fine work. Through the removal of material, the sand and stone emerge from below to reveal spectacular natural patterns. The incremental depth we grind is selected according to the customer's specification.
The #1 grind begins at a shallow depth and exhibits a mainly uniform color field with light sand flecks throughout.
The #2 grind presents larger sand flecks in medium concentration.
The #3 grind shows a higher concentration of sand flecks with small stones of aggregate revealed. 
The #4 displays the deepest grind with the highest concentration of sand flecks and full-sized aggregate stones.
Grinding Options: Feature
Feature grinding further enhances the geologic nature of the concrete by emphasizing areas of focal interest in each piece. You can choose among three approaches to highlighting:
- Transition
- Edge highlighting
- Edge highlighting with transition-over-top
Areas which truly come alive with feature grinding are at a countertop edge; around the rim, within the bowl, or around the drain of a sink; and around the firebox edge of a fireplace, although there are numerous ways to transition the grind within a surface and combine these grinds to produce artistic variations in concrete.
Feature grinding can further enhance the individuality of an installation when combined with our Artisan Series concrete and custom embeddments. Learn More
