Limestone tiles from ancient times

 

Jerusalem Limestone tiles have been quarried between the Mediterranean and the Red Sea for almost 6,000 years. It’s an organic, sedimentary rock that makes a natural stone flooring material that really withstands the test of time and serious traffic.

 

Jerusalem itself has taken a pounding over the millennia. It’s been repeatedly attacked, destroyed, captured and recaptured and yet still survives.

 

Natural stone reclaimed tiles made from Jerusalem limestone are proving increasingly fashionable but they always have been a popular choice with architects and builders. Strong and long-lasting, limestone floor tiles and slabs were used to create pavements and stone floors in ancient Jerusalem. The Lapicida antique reclaimed collection not only features limestone floor tiles, it also includes beautiful and durable limestone wall tiles.
