Florence Dark Porcelain Paving slabs will bring a sense of luxury to modern garden designs. The deep black tones of the vitrified porcelain tiles combined with subtle texture and veining delivers effortless elegance. Porcelain paving outdoor tiles are hard wearing and easily maintained, making it an ideal product for highly trafficked areas. Before buying, we recommend that all customers read our Product Guide. London Stone are a leading supplied in outdoor tiles UK.

Porcelain is manufactured in batches and therefore the colour and texture may vary from batch to batch.

This may mean that the porcelain you receive when ordered may differ from the samples or showroom displays viewed before purchasing.

Different sizes are manufactured in different batches. It is therefore not recommended to mix sizes.

If you feel this may be a concern for you, please contact our sales team who will be happy to advise you accordingly.

We recommend keeping a record of the 'batch colour code' of the delivered porcelain in case further stock is required. This can be found on the box that the porcelain is packaged in, and it is usually a number followed by a letter, or a six digit number.
