Imagery is representative of the stone type and visual character. Natural stone varies between slabs and lots. Current material will be presented for review as part of the sourcing process.
Limestone
Limestone is an even, sedimentary stone with a quiet surface and minimal movement. Arcera can source limestone where the stone should recede and let the space carry the composition.
- Typical colours
- Cream, sand, grey and soft blue-grey.
- Movement
- Minimal. Character comes from tone, texture and occasional fossil detail rather than veining.
- Common finishes
- Honed, Brushed, Bush-hammered, Sandblasted
- Lead time
- Approximately eight to 12 weeks, sourced to order
Describe the character you are after.
These are visual references to help you describe the appearance you prefer. They are not stock, and not a list of what Arcera holds.
Light and restrained
Near-uniform cream or sand field with almost no visible movement.
Warm and softly veined
Sand to honey tones with subtle sedimentary layering.

Considered for scale and use.
Floors and walls
Well suited to large continuous areas where an even, restrained field is the intent.
Exterior and cladding
Widely used for facades and paving, subject to density, exposure and finish selection.
Natural variation
Tone shifts gradually between blocks and lots. Fossil inclusions and shell detail are natural to the stone and vary by quarry.
Natural stone is inherently variable. Colour, veining, movement, fissures, texture and surface characteristics differ between slabs and lots. Representative imagery is provided to communicate the general character of the stone only. Final material selection should be confirmed against available slabs before purchase, fabrication or installation.
Care and specification
Soft, porous and calcareous. Sealing is strongly recommended, and limestone should be assessed carefully for heavy-wear or food-preparation surfaces.
How Arcera sources limestone.
- 01
Share your requirement
Provide the stone type, application, dimensions, finish and project timing.
- 02
Arcera reviews suitable material
Arcera checks supplier availability, suitable varieties, slab sizes and sourcing options.
- 03
Review current stone
Representative samples, slab imagery or current supplier lots are presented for consideration.
- 04
Confirm and order
The selected material, quantity, finish, price, freight and expected delivery are confirmed.
Allow approximately eight to 12 weeks from confirmation of the selected stone and order. Lead times remain subject to material availability, production, shipping and customs.
Source stone for your project
Tell Arcera about the stone character, application, approximate dimensions, finish and timing you require. We will review suitable sourcing options and return with available material, indicative lead time and next steps.
Other stone Arcera can source
- Dolomite Marble-like character with a harder surface, suited to working benchtops.
- Marble Expressive veining and natural variation for refined interior surfaces.
- Quartzite Natural depth and movement with strength suited to demanding surfaces.
- Granite Crystalline and hard wearing, for surfaces that take daily use and exterior exposure.
- Travertine Layered, open and warm, used filled or unfilled across floors, walls and furniture.
- Onyx Translucent and highly figured, considered for feature and backlit applications.
Can Arcera source limestone for my project?
Yes. Arcera sources limestone to order. Share the character, application, approximate dimensions, finish and timing you need, and Arcera will review suitable sourcing options and return with available material and an indicative lead time.
How long will limestone take to arrive?
Allow approximately eight to 12 weeks from confirmation of the selected stone and order. Lead times remain subject to material availability, production, shipping and customs.
What finishes are available in limestone?
Honed, Brushed, Bush-hammered, Sandblasted are commonly available. What is practical depends on the specific stone and supplier lot, so include the preferred finish in your enquiry and Arcera will confirm.
Will the stone look exactly like the imagery shown?
Tone shifts gradually between blocks and lots. Fossil inclusions and shell detail are natural to the stone and vary by quarry.
Does Arcera fabricate and install limestone?
Fabrication and installation support may be available depending on location, material and project scope. Include the requirement in your enquiry so Arcera can confirm the appropriate pathway.
