Historical Grandeur: Vieux Bourgogne Limestone Artisan Antiqued

Bring the soul of a French estate to your home with the Vieux Bourgogne Limestone Artisan Antiqued Finish by Ca' Pietra.

A definitive highlight of our Natural Stone Collection, this limestone represents the pinnacle of stone aging techniques. The Artisan Antiqued (Ancient) finish is achieved through a meticulous hand-finishing process, creating deep texture and heavily pillowed edges that mimic 500 years of wear. With a palette ranging from warm beiges to atmospheric greys, this stone offers a V3 high variation that ensures every installation is a unique masterpiece.

Supplied in a traditional 500mm width with random lengths, these flagstones allow for an organic, historical layout. At a substantial 20mm thickness, the Vieux Bourgogne collection provides a sense of permanence and architectural weight that modern imitations cannot match, making it the perfect foundation for kitchens, hallways, and large open-plan living areas.

The Hyperion Family Promise

  • Hand-Finished Quality - We supply the premium Ancient series from Ca' Pietra, ensuring the pillowed edges and surface textures meet rigorous heritage standards.
  • Reclaimed Character - Each slab is selected to provide the authentic tonal shifts and "shimmer" of natural limestone across large areas.
  • Underfloor Heating Ready - Natural stone is the ultimate thermal mass, holding and radiating warmth efficiently for a cozy home environment.
  • A Lifetime Investment - Solid natural stone provides a prestigious finish that only grows more beautiful with age, developing a unique patina through generations of use.

⚠ Installation & Care Tips

  • Sealing: Natural stone must be sealed. We recommend LTP Mattstone to protect against stains while maintaining the authentic artisan finish.
  • Grout: Use a wide grout joint (approx. 6-10mm) and a tonal colour like Limestone or Ivory to complement the pillowed edges of the stone.
  • Dry-Laying: Due to the V3 variation and random lengths, always dry-lay stones from multiple crates before fixing to ensure an even distribution of tones.
  • Maintenance: Clean with pH-neutral stone cleaners only. Avoid acidic or abrasive supermarket products which can damage the stone and strip the sealer.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between "Weathered" and "Artisan Antiqued" finishes?

The Weathered finish provides a gentler, aged texture. The Artisan Antiqued (Ancient) finish is far more dramatic; it features significantly more surface texture and heavily rounded, "pillowed" edges. This process is designed to mimic stones that have been worn down by centuries of heavy use, making it the ultimate choice for heritage restorations.

Does this limestone require sealing?

Yes. Natural limestone is a porous material. To protect your investment, it must be sealed with a high-quality impregnating sealer upon installation. This creates a barrier against moisture and stains while allowing the stone to breathe and develop its natural patina over time.

Is the Artisan Antiqued finish suitable for underfloor heating?

Absolutely. Natural limestone is one of the best thermal conductors for home heating. Because these slabs are 20mm thick, they act as an excellent thermal mass, retaining heat and releasing it slowly and consistently, keeping your floor warm long after the heating has been turned off.
