A sophisticated brushed texture that combines premium aesthetics with exceptional grip. The perfect balance of elegance and practicality for wet and outdoor applications.
Leather Finish Kota Stone undergoes a specialised wire-brushing process that creates a slightly rough, tactile surface texture that resembles the feel of aged leather. The surface is neither as smooth as honed nor as rough as natural — it occupies a premium middle ground that combines aesthetic refinement with practical safety.
The wire-brushing process opens the stone's crystalline structure just enough to create a micro-textured surface that provides excellent grip when wet, while still appearing sophisticated and refined. This makes leather finish especially popular for pool decks, spa surrounds, outdoor entertaining areas, and luxury bathroom floors.
The finish also brings out subtle tonal depth in the stone's natural colours, often revealing variations in blues and greens in Kota Blue that are less visible on smoother finishes — giving each installation a rich, layered visual character.
The wire-brushed surface has a unique, pleasant texture underfoot and to the touch — elevating any space with a sense of luxury craftsmanship.
Specifically engineered for wet environments — the micro-texture provides excellent R10/R11 wet slip resistance around pools and water features.
The brushing process reveals deeper colour layers within the stone, creating a richer, more nuanced tonal palette than smoother finishes.
The textured surface naturally hides minor scratches and wear marks, maintaining a fresh appearance even in high-traffic areas over time.
The leather finish does not degrade or fade under intense UV exposure — perfect for sun-drenched outdoor terraces and pool areas.
Gives projects a distinctive, one-of-a-kind character that sets them apart from standard polished or natural stone — favoured by architects and designers.
