There is a category of natural stone that transcends conventional countertop and flooring material.

Semi-precious stone slabs are manufactured by arranging carefully selected pieces of natural mineral and gemstone into large panels.

The most popular semi-precious materials include amethyst, agate, tiger's eye, labradorite, and blue apatite.

Backlighting is what transforms semi-precious stone from impressive to extraordinary.

Common applications include bar tops, feature walls, reception desks, tabletops, bathroom vanities, and fireplace surrounds.

Pricing for semi-precious slabs varies dramatically based on the mineral type, quality, and size.

At Bay Stone Depot, we curate a rotating selection of semi-precious slabs.
