Sterling Mist slate tiles for pools & water walls.
Sterling Mist slate tiles for pools & water walls.
Specify it for
Pools, Water walls, Spas, Wet areas
We would steer you elsewhere for
Wet areas. A polished floor is slippery when wet — specify a textured finish for bathrooms, poolside routes and open verandahs.
How it reads
At a distance
An even mid-grey with no strong cast — the most genuinely neutral surface in the range.
Close up
Soft mineral movement rather than banding. Enough to look like stone, not enough to become a pattern.
Through the day
Shifts subtly cooler in north light and warmer under lamps, which is why it works in both.
When wet
Darkens a shade or two and returns as it dries.

Stoneza — Anantay Exports Pvt. Ltd. — is a quarry-direct manufacturer, processor and exporter of Natural slate, operating from Bhilwara, Rajasthan since 1992. We operate quarries at Bijolia, Kota and Asind alongside verified direct quarry networks across India, processing and calibrating every order through our in-house factories in Bhilwara with zero middle trader markups. We supply pan-India and export worldwide.
Send the quantity, the finish and thickness you need, and the delivery location. We come back with a firm quarry-direct quotation and a confirmed lead time. Because we quarry and process ourselves, the quotation comes from the works rather than through a trader — and we would rather quote against a real drawing than hand you an indicative range that changes later.
Sterling Mist - Pool & Wall Tile is the quarry and trade name; Sterling Mist - Pool & Wall Tile is our name for it. The spec code is STZ-OF-STMI-POLI. Quote the spec code on a BOQ rather than either name — the same stone is sold under several names across India, which is exactly how substitution happens on site after a specification is approved.
A clean, even polish that deepens the colour and returns light without turning the surface into a mirror. The standard interior finish across most of our range. Progressive abrasive polishing to a medium-fine grit, stopped before the high-gloss stages. Shorter than a mirror process, which is why it costs less and keeps a slight softness. Wet grip: low — keep dry. Enough sheen to look finished, enough restraint to survive daily traffic without showing every mark.
Damp-mop with a pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid descaling and citrus products on limestone and marble. Re-polish in place when it dulls, which in a house may be never and in a busy corridor may be a decade.
Size: 100 × 100 mm. Thickness: 10 mm. Supplied box-packed at approximately 27 kg per sq ft. Custom sizing is available on project orders — send the setting-out and we will cut to it.
Pool-grade adhesive over waterproofing. Joint: 2-3 mm epoxy joint. Settle the substrate and the fixing detail with your consultant at design stage rather than on site — it is the single thing most often left too late, and on a stone job it cannot be adjusted afterwards without taking the work down.
Yes. At < 1% (very low) water absorption and 2700 kg/m³ density it is exterior grade. At under 1% absorption it needs no sealer and handles monsoon and wet areas without difficulty.
Yes. We export worldwide from Bhilwara with container loading, export packing and documentation handled in-house. Minimum order is project-based rather than a fixed count. For bulk and wholesale enquiries, container quantities and repeat programmes, send the schedule and we will quote FOB or CIF against it.
Yes, and we would rather you did. Ask for a wet sample as well as a dry one — every stone darkens when wet, some dramatically, and it is the one thing a photograph cannot show you.
Work backwards from where the material is going rather than from how it looks. Anywhere it gets wet, choose a textured face — shotblast, riverwash or flame. For interiors, leather, satin or honed gives colour without glare and hides marks far better than a polish. Mirror and full polish belong in dry formal spaces only. Each of the 2 finishes has its own page above with a wet-grip rating, the settings it suits and what we would steer you away from. Order samples of the two or three you are weighing up — two finishes can look identical on a screen and completely different in the hand, and no photograph shows you grip.
