Reclaimed Antique Cobblestone and Curb Driveway Creates a Lasting Impression!
European Sandstone cobblestone is a very hard, tight grained, durable cobblestone – as durable as granite. Over time, antique sandstone cobble has worn to a smoother, foot friendly surface . Because its very comfortable under-foot, its a great material for walkways or patios and yet perfectly suited for driveways.

Natural paving stone is more visually appealing and also has the distinct advantage of lasting longer than manufactured pavers, decomposed granite or concrete. This should be considered when reviewing your overall budget.

Some great ideas from Houzz.com!
Historic Sidewalk Cobble®
Historic Sidewalk Cobble® are beautiful hand-split stones created hundreds of years ago for a foot-friendly, flat surface area used for sidewalks and pedestrian areas. This cobble has not been exposed to the dirt, oil, eventual asphalt that covered many cobblestone streets – so they’ve retained a fairly consistent shape and especially their gorgeous patina!.
What is Belgium Block?
Belgian Block is a generic term used to describe extremely large 10” to 12” long blocks of stone, resembling oversized rectangle cobblestone, which actually have little or no affiliation with Belgium itself. These huge rectangle or sometimes cubical shaped pieces of stone are typically made of granite and used for paving, borders and a wide variety of landscaping projects.
