- Bluestone flagging is approximately 1 to 3 inches thick, with a natural cleft finish. As the name suggests, bluestone flagging comes in a variety of shades closely related to the blue family, including gray, lilac and muted blue.
- Irregular bluestone flagging can be laid in sand and crushed rock or applied on a concrete slab. The cracks between the bluestone are then filled with sand.
- Irregular bluestone flagging is arranged in a random pattern that fits the individual stones together and fills the desired area. Bluestone can be cut using a circular saw with a diamond blade, in order to create just the right size stone to fit into the design for your walkway, patio or other surface.
- Bluestone is quarried in Pennsylvania and southeastern New York, with the most bluestone produced in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania.
- Flagging refers to the stonework laid for patios and sidewalks. Bluestone flagging is readily available at most natural stone or landscaping supply stores.
