Karst stone Repen is a limestone of high density and excellent durability.
It is one of the most recognizable gray limestones, in Slovenia and Europe, as well as in the wider world. With its rich structure, full of beautifully preserved fossils, it adorns indoor or outdoor spaces.
With a light gray base that fits any color, it can be incorporated into any interior.
Due to its durability, it easily withstands weather conditions and is therefore used for outdoors throughout Slovenia, Europe and the world. It is the hardest of gray limestones.

We treat the surface of our materials in different ways; polished, honed, bush-hammered, rough bush-hammered, fine bush-hammered, micro-bush hammered, scored, flamed and chiselled. Brushed treatment can be add to all rough treatments, which makes the material easier to clean and maintain, so rough treatments can also be suitable for indoor use if brushed hard.
Textures and colors of the material
Treatments description
Flamed and brushed
After the thermal process of flaming, the surface is brushed with special abrasive brushes, which remove the roughness.
Scored
This finish is characterized by a succession of flanked grooves carried out using diamond discs or a wide range of variable–profile tools. This finish can be obtained on materials that are at least 3 cm thick.
Bush hammered
Is a typical Karst finish, it is used to give a rustic appearance, hide imperfections and color variations in addition to making it slip – proof. The bush-hammering effect is obtained using a diamond – nosed hammer, the bush – hammer and the resulting texture can vary from rough to fine–grained and encompass all other textures in between. This finish can be applied to materials that are at least 3 cm thick.
Rough bush hammered
Is a typical Karst finish, it is used to give a rustic appearance, hide imperfections and color variations in addition to making it slip – proof. The bush-hammering effect is obtained using a diamond – nosed hammer, the bush – hammer and the resulting texture can vary from rough to fine–grained and encompass all other textures in between. This finish can be applied to materials that are at least 4 cm thick.
Flamed
Is a thermal process obtained using oxygen and gas. The finish is created by applying an extremely hot flame to the surface, which undergoes to thermal shock. This process makes the surface coarse and in relief. This finish can be applied to materials that are at least 3 cm thick.
Fine bush hammered
Is a typical Karst finish, it is used to give a rustic appearance, hide imperfections and color variations in addition to making it slip – proof. The bush-hammering effect is obtained using a diamond – nosed hammer, the bush – hammer and the resulting texture can vary from rough to fine–grained and encompass all other textures in between. This finish can be applied to materials that are at least 2 cm thick.
Micro bush hammered
Is a finish used to give a rustic appearance, hide imperfections and colour variations in addition to making it slip – proof. The bush-hammering effect is obtained using a diamond – nosed hammer, the bush – hammer and the resulting texture can vary from rough to fine–grained and encompass all other textures in between. This finish can be applied to materials that are at least 2 cm thick.
Hand chiselled
Is a typical Karst finish, it is obtained by striking the stone surface by hand, using a pointed tool and a mallet. The final result is an extremely evident texture that showcases contrasting colors. This finish can be applied to materials that are at least 4 cm thick.
