3. Authentic by nature.
A natural material sourced from all over the world, stone
meticulously records the passage of time and plays it
back to us through a visual diary of stunning color and
texture. An unparalleled medium for interior spaces, our
use of stone today reflects an appreciation for the magic
and artistry of natural materials.
In accordance with the natural world, the color palette of
ANN SACKS ® stone, from ice blue to rich cherry-chocolate,
mirrors the diversity of nature. And our programmatic
approach to the category allows the flexibility to create
your ideal environment — from floor to ceiling.
ANN SACKS offers premium natural stone selections
with superior, precise fabrication. Our broad assortment
includes unique, hard-to-find stones and the depth of
our offering includes slabs, vanity tops, multiple sizes
of field tile, trims and moldings, and an extensive
offering of mosaics.
4. Using this catalog This catalog was designed to show the breadth of the ANN SACKS®
stone assortment and to serve as a resource for designing with stone.
WHAT YOU’LL FIND
Collections are displayed with a close-up image of each stone—intended to show that particular stone’s
distinct characteristics. It is important to note though, that a single piece of any given stone will not tell
the complete story. Each piece is one of a kind and will display some variation with regard to coloration,
veining and surface texture.
Additional resources on pages 38–40 include general care and maintenance information, line drawings
for a visual representation of mosaic and molding/trim formats, usage and variation guidelines, and a
glossary of stone finishes.
WHAT IS PROGRAMMATIC STONE?
At ANN SACKS, we refer to “programmatic stone” as those stone collections
that encompass a range of formats in order to offer the ultimate in design
flexibility. This range of formats includes:
field tile
Field tile represents the core of any stone collection. Available in sizes
ranging from 2" x 4" to 24" x 24", with many options in between, these
pieces offer the utmost in flexibility and form the backbone of designing
with stone tile.
mosaics
Stone mosaics bring texture and visual interest to stone tile installations.
Sold on netted sheets for ease of installation, mosaics range from simple
1" x 1" grid patterns to more elaborate herringbone and basketweave. See
page 38 for line drawings of available mosaic patterns.
moldings/trim
Just as wood molding and trim plays a key role in completing an interior
space, so too does tile molding and trim when designing with stone.
Refer to page 38 for line drawings of available molding/trim profiles.
slabs
Commonly used for bathroom vanity tops or kitchen counters, stone
slabs also make a strong statement as surfacing for more modern
flooring and wall installations. All ANN SACKS stone slabs are offered
with a finished top surface and straight-cut edges to be fabricated
to your project specifications.

sealing/color enhancing products are also available. It
is always recommended to test samples prior to treating
the entire installation.
Reseal stone as necessary. Resealing frequency will
depend on traffic and use. It is important to properly
clean the stone prior to resealing to prevent locking
in existing stains or dirt. Showers, high traffic areas,
exteriors and countertops may require more frequent
applications.
Although the use of a high-quality penetrating sealer
reduces the potential for deep, difficult-to-remove
stains, note that sealing is not fail-safe. Spills should
be cleaned up as soon as possible. Stone, like any
other natural product, will age and patina, adding to
its beauty and character.
Routine maintenance for stone includes sweeping or
vacuuming to remove dirt, similar to wood floors or
carpet. For heavier cleaning, it is recommended to
use cleaners especially formulated for natural stone.
Cleaners are available for general maintenance as
well as heavy-duty cleaning and stain removal.

textures. Produced through mechanical or chemical means to
simulate the naturally occurring effects of the aging process.

mechanical process, that varies from subtle to rough.
honed A satin-smooth surface finish with little or no gloss,
recommended for commercial floors.
polished A glossy surface finish that brings out the full

gloss, finished by application of a steady flow of sand and
water under pressure.
satin honed A finish between honed and polished
allowing for a smooth surface with a subtle sheen.
split-faced A finish whereby the stone’s face has been
broken on an approximate plane, revealing a dynamic fractured
surface texture.
tumbled A weathered, aging finish created when the
