    It almost looks real!
    I heard a fashion statement saying Green was to become popular next year, and it certainly seems to have a tint of green running through it.
    Could be why the call it Applestone.

    Tasty but variation too would annoy me.
    Any chance of hand picking? Lol

    I'v never seen it in the flesh but it's no worse that the shades in travertine and I'v laid plenty of them.

    It's good for a company to hit a niche market in these trying times, the firm i do a hell of a lot for now has always cornered the high end of the market.
    That's why i'm fitting solid marble fancy bathrooms, slab floors, solid shower trays and walls etc.
    There seems to be work in this sector for the right people.

    Too right is there Joe..

    There is an awful lot of cheap cheap stone comps about selling pure crap stone... PHG ain't one of those comps.. top quality at reasonable prices..

    He has a real passion for what he sells.. and that is a great quality IMO..
