About the stone

Getting to know Alböke Flamed

The most expressive of the Alböke limestones from Öland, where rust red and warm grey run into each other like flames. The pattern varies a great deal from slab to slab, so every worktop or floor is unique.

Where to use it

Alböke Flamed is mainly specified for worktops and tables and interiors. Limestone and marble are more sensitive to acids than granite; an impregnating sealer and pH-neutral cleaning keep the surface at its best.

  • worktops and tables
  • interiors

Finishes

  • flamed: rough and slip resistant, for external paving and steps

Origin and geology

On Öland a small family-run stoneworks quarries and finishes the island's limestone; the variation from slab to slab is typical of Öland stone.

Swedish limestone is mostly dense and fine-grained. It is used above all for floors, stairs, sills and worktops, with some varieties also suited to facades and external paving.
