What You're Getting – Shop Premium Quality
This is proper multi-tonal Indian sandstone with traditional heritage character, not bland single-color stone pretending to be interesting. You're getting genuine Raj Green sandstone in the popular 900x600mm large format – calibrated to economical 18mm thickness so you get authentic character without paying premium prices.
The color? Absolutely gorgeous and deeply traditional. Raj Green brings together soft greens, warm light browns, and subtle grey tones across different slabs within the same pack. Some pieces lean more green, others show golden-brown dominance, many display multiple colors within a single piece. This is the multi-tonal complexity that made Yorkshire stone famous – warm, inviting, and full of natural character.
The resemblance to York Stone is remarkable, which is exactly why Raj Green remains Britain's most beloved sandstone. You get that classic British patio aesthetic – the same warm, earthy tones, the same natural variation, the same traditional character – at a fraction of the cost. The 18mm thickness makes it even more budget-friendly while maintaining the authentic appearance and performance you expect.
The 900x600mm format brings contemporary proportions to traditional stone. Large slabs mean fewer joints, faster installation, and cleaner visual lines. The naturally riven surface delivers authentic texture through geological layering – shadows and depth that change throughout the day as light angles shift. Handcut edges maintain organic character.
18mm vs 22mm – What's the Difference?
The 18mm thickness is perfectly suitable for standard patio applications with proper sub-base preparation. It's lighter and more economical to source, which translates to better value for you. The 22mm version offers slightly more robustness for heavier traffic or commercial applications, but for typical residential patios, the 18mm performs beautifully and costs significantly less.

How to Use It
Traditional Patios: The signature application. The 900x600mm format creates clean, contemporary layouts with traditional stone character. The multi-tonal complexity ensures your patio feels warm and inviting rather than cold or monotonous. Perfect for cottage gardens, period properties, or any space where traditional materials matter at budget-friendly prices.
Garden Seating Areas: Ideal for creating characterful outdoor rooms. The warm greens and browns work beautifully with planted borders and garden furniture. The large-format slabs create substantial presence without overwhelming smaller spaces. The York Stone aesthetic suits relaxed garden settings perfectly.
Cottage Garden Pathways: Excellent for rustic outdoor routes through planted areas. The traditional character feels appropriate in cottage aesthetics where natural materials matter. The 18mm thickness makes it more economical for pathway applications where you're covering linear metres rather than large square metreage.
Heritage Property Patios: Perfect for period properties where modern uniform materials would look out of place. The resemblance to York Stone means your patio suits the architecture and atmosphere of older homes. The traditional character feels appropriate rather than anachronistic, and the economy thickness makes sense for budget-conscious heritage property restoration.
Installation Tips
For standard patio applications with 18mm thickness, you'll want 100-150mm compacted Type 1 MOT sub-base with a 30-50mm sharp sand and cement bedding layer. A 4:1 mix works well for the bedding mortar. Proper sub-base preparation is essential with the 18mm thickness – don't skimp here.
With 18mm calibrated thickness, leveling is straightforward – you're working with consistent depth. But because of the naturally riven surface, expect some natural height variation across each individual slab. That's part of the authentic character, not a quality issue. Use your bedding mortar to accommodate minor variations.
Maintain consistent 5-10mm joints for professional appearance. Point with either traditional sand-cement pointing or modern jointing compounds – both work well. Many people use traditional mortar pointing for a heritage aesthetic that complements the stone's traditional character.
When laying, distribute the colors naturally rather than grouping all similar-colored slabs together. You want the blend to feel organic and traditional, not artificially sorted. Lay several square metres at once so you can see how the colors distribute before committing to a pattern.
The 18mm thickness makes the slabs lighter and easier to handle during installation – a genuine benefit if you're doing the work yourself.
What to Expect with Natural Stone
Here's what makes authentic Raj Green special – it's genuine quarried stone with warm, multi-tonal character that captures the aesthetic of traditional British sandstone. The color variation is significant and wonderful. You'll see slabs ranging from soft sage-greens through warm light browns to subtle grey tones. That variety creates visual depth and traditional character.
Some slabs will be predominantly one color. Others will show multiple colors within a single piece – green on one side transitioning to brown, grey backgrounds with golden veining, brown bases with green highlights. This variety creates the warm, inviting complexity that made Yorkshire stone so beloved.
The riven surface is naturally textured through the stone's geological layering. This creates shadows and depth that change throughout the day as light angles shift. Combined with the color variation, you get traditional character that feels authentic rather than manufactured.
Expect the colors to evolve slightly as the stone settles into your garden and develops a natural patina. The greens may deepen, browns might warm, greys can become more pronounced. This natural weathering enhances the traditional character – the stone looks better as it ages, not worse. Many people specifically prefer the weathered appearance because it feels more established and authentic.
The resemblance to York Stone becomes more pronounced as the stone weathers. Fresh-laid Raj Green is gorgeous, but weathered Raj Green is stunning – it develops that same warm, earthy character that makes traditional British sandstone so special.
The 18mm thickness doesn't affect the color or character – you get the same authentic Raj Green aesthetic as the thicker versions, just at better value.

Care & Maintenance
Raj Green sandstone is ridiculously low maintenance – sweep occasionally and hit it with a gentle pressure wash once or twice a year. The naturally riven surface hides everyday dirt beautifully and the multi-tonal palette means marks simply blend rather than standing out.
The stone performs wonderfully without sealing. Many people actually prefer the natural weathered patina that develops – it deepens all the colors simultaneously and enhances the York Stone resemblance. If you do want to seal it for enhanced color depth or easier cleaning, a quality sandstone sealer works well and brings out the warm tones beautifully.
The multi-tonal character means your patio always looks intentionally varied rather than patchy or uneven. Moss growth, if it occurs, simply adds to the traditional character rather than looking like neglect. Many cottage garden owners actively encourage subtle moss growth because it enhances the heritage aesthetic.
