Penrhyn Bangor Blue or Cwt-y-Bugail
The walling options in the LBS Welsh Slate range are available in a number of colour options, however, the two most popular would be the Penrhyn Bangor Blue with its distinctive 'heather' purple tone and the Cwt with its Blue Grey and Rustic accents.
Pillared Finish
Showing the heavily textured or 'pillared face' this option is available in various combinations of sizes on request. Also available in the Cwt colour option.
Cleaved Finish
The cleaved option is produced by splitting the slate along the natural cleave or plane - in the same way that the roofing slate is naturally split. The resulting slate has a beautiful and subtle riven texture and bags of character and interest.
Sawn Finish
The sawn option in the Welsh Slate creates a totally different look and feel to the material giving it a much smoother uniform and contemporary look. In addition to that in also changes the colour. In the image above the wall has utilised both sawn pieces and a few cleaved pieces also - in this way a two tone effect are achieved.
