Antique Dalles de Bourgogne
Reclaimed Dalles de Bourgogne
What Are Antique Dalles de Bourgogne?
Antique Dalles de Bourgogne are reclaimed French limestone flooring from the Burgundy region, characterized by natural shades of beige, cream and light brown, along with a smooth, aged surface. They are known for their durability and unique look.
In the 17th and 18th centuries, craftsmen used hand tools to cut these slabs from local quarries. This process gave the stones slight differences in size and thickness, making each piece unique. The stones often come from old buildings and farmhouses, preserving their historical value.
Today, these stones are reused for flooring, providing a connection to history while being practical and long-lasting.
