Karndean Knight Tile Grey Riven Slate ST16 Stone Tile Glue Down LVT Flooring

Discover the authentic beauty of traditional natural stone with Karndean Knight Tile Grey Riven Slate ST16, a stunning stone tile flooring that captures the distinctive character of riven slate with textured grey surfaces and the organic split-stone appearance characteristic of authentic quarried slate. This luxurious slate effect flooring delivers the timeless appeal of traditional riven slate with the characteristic textured, uneven surface created when slate naturally splits along its grain - the distinctive "riven" finish that has made slate flooring prized for centuries, all at entry-range prices that make authentic riven slate aesthetics accessible for any project. The ST16 Grey Riven Slate features a beautifully versatile colour palette in mid-tone grey with natural variation, recreating the sophisticated neutral tones of genuine riven slate. The "riven" finish refers to the traditional textured surface achieved when slate is split along its natural cleavage planes, creating slightly uneven, organic surfaces with authentic character - more natural and characterful than smooth honed slate, yet more refined than rough-hewn stone. This authentic aesthetic brings traditional stone character suited to country, heritage, contemporary-rustic, and traditional interiors where genuine riven slate creates timeless, characterful foundations. The design includes an optional matching Windsor border for added definition and framing. Also available in rigid core format (SCB-ST16-18) for click installation preference.
