Create a lasting impression

We're on the cutting edge of natural stone finishes.  Literally. Because for decades, Cold Spring Granite has developed and fine-tuned a variety of standard and proprietary finishes.  Our comprehensive suite of standard finishes - from the glossy, highly reflective Polish to the rough-hewn textures of our Diamond series to the smooth surface that Hone generates on limestone - is where you'll discover a finish that perfectly conveys the inspiration behind your design.
 

Custom Finishes

Our craftsmen welcome the task to meet the most demanding design requirements, developing innovative tools and creating custom finishes that coax a unique vision from the stone. Some of our most difficult challenges have evolved into our most successful finishes, fashioning subtle variations in color, tone and texture that ultimately enhance the functionality of the stone and brings it to life.

Graphical Elements

Cold Spring Granite offers a full line of graphical elements that not only defines your design in stone, but distinguishes it in gorgeous detail.  From carving, etching and sandblasting to lettering and leafing to inlays of bronze, metal and stone, our master artisans work with you to apply a breadth of graphical elements - or create custom applications - to meet the specifics of your design.  Together, we'll fashion works of art that will stand the test of time.
