Ashcroft Manufactured Stone

Some projects need a dark wall that is not quite black. Ashcroft sits in that range: a dark charcoal gray concrete manufactured stone with a natural finish and irregular faces. It ships as random-size flats with random-size corners.

That deep gray grounds a home visually, which is why it often appears on base courses, chimney chases and entry surrounds set against lighter siding. Inside, it gives a fireplace wall weight without the severity of pure black. Dark stone absorbs more heat in direct sun, worth considering on hot, west-facing walls. For an even darker option, compare it with Ironwood Charcoal in the stone veneer collection.

To see how Ashcroft looks with your siding and trim, ask for a sample, request a quote, or set up a showroom appointment in Draper or Payson.

Sizes are nominal; random-size products are supplied in mixed pieces. Confirm dimensions, coverage and quantities with Stone Era before ordering.

A charcoal mortar gives Ashcroft a solid, monolithic look; a medium gray joint shows more of the stone pattern. It pairs with light stucco, natural cedar, black or bronze windows and steel accents. Use the corner pieces on every outside edge and column so the dark color wraps cleanly. Balance large areas with lighter materials above to keep the facade from feeling heavy.

    Questions

    About Ashcroft Manufactured Stone

    How is Ashcroft different from Ironwood Charcoal?

    Both are dark, natural-finish manufactured stones with flats and corners. Ashcroft is listed as dark charcoal gray, while Ironwood Charcoal is listed as charcoal black. Ashcroft keeps a bit more gray in the mix; compare samples in daylight.

    Where does a dark gray stone work best on an exterior?

    Many designers use dark stone low on the wall, on columns or around entries, with lighter siding above. In hot, sunny spots dark surfaces absorb more heat, so consider orientation and confirm installation details with your installer.

    How should I plan flats and corners?

    Ashcroft is offered as random-size flats and random-size corners. Measure the flat wall area and the linear footage of outside corners separately, and our team can help you plan quantities of each for your project.
