-
COLORS
The artisans at Unique Stone hand apply each layer of finish based on exacting formulas, but because cast stone contains natural materials which can react differently based on a number of conditions beyond our control, each piece is unique. Color tones and accents will vary from piece to piece, but are expected to fall within a certain range.
Due to the variation of the concrete produced at different times, Unique Stone cannot accept any returns or offer discount(s) on product that does not color match product(s) from a previous order. For color consistency, it is strongly recommended that any products that need to match be shipped on the same order.
