Gascogne Blue Limestone

Gascogne Blue Limestone Collection features natural limestone with cool blue-gray tones. This stone creates refined, timeless interiors with classic European elegance.

About Gascogne Blue Limestone 12×12 Honed Tile

Material Education

Gascogne Blue is a distinguished French limestone prized for its sophisticated blue-grey tones, subtle fossil inclusions, and fine-grained, even texture. Quarried from the storied sedimentary deposits of southwestern France, this stone carries a quiet elegance defined by soft cloud-like movement, muted silver and slate undertones, and an organic warmth that sets it apart from more commercial stones. Its honed surface reveals the stone's natural depth without the high reflectivity of a polish, lending a refined, matte sophistication.

As a genuine natural limestone, each tile will display its own unique pattern of fossil traces, tonal shifts, and subtle veining — these characteristics are inherent signatures of the stone's ancient formation and are celebrated hallmarks of authentic natural material.

About this tile: This 12×12 field tile format is honed to a smooth, low-sheen finish, making it an exceptionally versatile format suited for both floor and wall installations in residential and commercial settings.

Design & Inspiration

Gascogne Blue's cool blue-grey palette pairs beautifully with brushed nickel, matte black fixtures, whitewashed oak cabinetry, and soft linen textiles, anchoring interiors in a calm, European-inspired aesthetic. It transitions effortlessly between contemporary minimalism, coastal spa design, and classic French country or transitional styles.

The generous 12×12 format lays up quickly in a straightforward grid or offset pattern, creating a seamless, expansive visual field that amplifies the stone's atmospheric color and texture — ideal for bathroom floors, feature walls, and entryway installations. Its honed finish strikes the perfect balance between refined elegance and practical slip resistance, making it equally at home underfoot and on shower walls.

Popular design combinations: Gascogne Blue 12×12 floor tile paired with a Thassos White marble mosaic accent border and matte brushed nickel fixtures for a serene, spa-inspired bathroom.

Gascogne Blue Limestone is a refined French sedimentary stone celebrated for its distinctive blue-grey coloration, delicate fossil inclusions, and fine, consistent grain — quarried from the prestigious limestone beds of southwestern France and long favored by European designers and architects.

Finished to a smooth honed surface, this 12×12 tile offers a low-sheen, matte appearance that softens the stone's cool tones and enhances its natural depth; the format installs efficiently in straight or offset grid patterns using standard large-format tile setting methods, making it a practical choice for both contractors and DIY enthusiasts.

Gascogne Blue Honed Tile is ideally suited for bathroom floors, shower walls, entryways, and feature walls in interior residential or light commercial applications; as a natural limestone it requires sealing prior to use in wet or high-traffic areas, and we strongly recommend ordering a sample to appreciate the stone's subtle color range and fossil character before purchasing.

Free Shipping: This product ships at standard freight rates calculated at checkout based on your location and order size.

Processing & Delivery: Orders are processed within 2–3 business days. Large orders ship via LTL freight — curbside delivery only. An adult must be present to sign for delivery. Estimated transit: 2–10 business days after shipment.

30-Day Returns: Uninstalled tile may be returned within 30 days of delivery. Inspect all tile carefully before installation — installed tile cannot be returned or exchanged. Samples are final sale.

Exclusions: Free shipping does not apply to Hawaii, Alaska, U.S. territories, or international addresses. Additional charges may apply for remote delivery areas.

Sealing: Gascogne Blue Limestone must be sealed before installation and resealed every 12–18 months, particularly in wet areas such as showers and bathroom floors. Its porous nature makes it susceptible to staining from oils, soaps, and minerals; a high-quality penetrating impregnator sealer is strongly recommended. Pay special attention to grout joints in wet-area applications.

Cleaning: Clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner and a soft mop or cloth — never use acidic cleaners (vinegar, citrus), bleach, or abrasive scrubbers, which will etch and dull the honed surface. Wipe up spills promptly, especially acidic liquids such as wine, juice, or toiletry products. Avoid steam cleaners, which can degrade the sealer over time.

Installation: Use a white polymer-modified thinset mortar to prevent any grey bleed-through on this pale blue-grey stone. Back-butter each tile in addition to applying thinset to the substrate for full coverage. Use tile leveling clips to ensure a flat, lippage-free surface. Standard sanded grout is appropriate for 12×12 installations with typical 1/8–3/16 inch joints; select a grout color that complements the stone's cool blue-grey palette.

Important: Inspect all tile before installation. Variations in color, veining, and texture between pieces are natural characteristics of genuine stone — not defects. Order 10% overage for cuts, waste, and future repairs. Tile & Mosaic Depot specialists are available M–F 8:30AM–5PM PST at 855-797-8453.

Why Order a Sample
A screen can't show you how Calacatta veining reads under your kitchen lights or how a porcelain finish sits next to your cabinet color. A sample can. It's the single best way to buy stone or porcelain tile with confidence — and the cheapest mistake you'll ever avoid.

How It Works
Samples are $7.99 each. Samples ship free and leave our warehouse within 1–3 business days. Sizes vary by material and availability — typically 3"×3" up to 8"×8" — and every sample is cut from the same material stocked for full orders.

What a Sample Shows
Color, texture, finish, and overall character. Because natural stone varies piece to piece, one sample represents the material but can't show the full range of a lot. Porcelain samples are highly representative of the production run. Want to see the current lot before you commit? Ask us — we'll send photos.

Good to Know

Samples are final sale — non-returnable and non-refundable.
We recommend sampling before every full order, especially for natural stone.

How Your Order Ships
In-stock orders leave our warehouse within 2–3 business days. Stone, porcelain, and mosaic ship on a pallet via scheduled LTL freight and arrive 2–10 business days after dispatch, depending on destination. You'll get tracking and the carrier's name by email the day it ships.

Freight Delivery — What to Expect

The carrier calls you first. Every freight delivery is by appointment. Expect a call or text to set a window before the truck is dispatched.
Curbside delivery. The driver unloads to the curb or driveway. Freight does not include carrying material indoors or into a garage — plan for a helper or a hand truck.
Someone 18+ must sign. Inspect the pallet before signing. Note any damage, shortage, or broken shrink-wrap on the delivery receipt — this is what makes a claim valid.
Truck access. The address must be accessible to a full-size freight truck with enough space to unload.

Free Shipping
Free curbside freight on qualifying mosaic and molding orders over $1,999 in the continental U.S. Field tile, porcelain, and other product types ship at freight rates shown at checkout. Not available to Hawaii, Alaska, U.S. territories, or international addresses.

Damage & Shortages
Report within 3 calendar days of delivery with photos of the pallet, packaging, and affected pieces to sales@tileandmosaicdepot.com. Verified claims are covered. Shortages of 1–5 pieces are refunded rather than reshipped — which is why we recommend ordering 10% overage.

30-Day Returns
Uninstalled tile in full, unopened boxes may be returned within 30 days of delivery. Return freight is paid by the customer. Partial boxes, opened boxes, installed material, and samples are final sale.

Questions Before You Order?
Call (855) 797-8453 or email sales@tileandmosaicdepot.com, Monday–Friday 8:30 AM–5 PM PT. If you're unsure about freight access at your address, ask us before checkout — we'll flag anything that could hold up delivery.

Natural Variation
Quarried stone varies in color, veining, shade, movement, and finish from piece to piece and from lot to lot. Screen photos and samples show the range, not the exact tile you'll receive. Variation is the nature of the material and is never grounds for return. Porcelain is far more consistent, but shade and pattern can still shift between production runs — buy your full quantity in one order.

Before You Install

Order 10% overage. Covers cuts, breakage, and spares for future repairs. Reorders may not match in tone or lot.
Inspect every piece before setting. Pull from all boxes, blend, and dry-lay the full area. Installation is acceptance — no claims are honored once tile is set.
Hire a qualified installer. Natural stone and large-format porcelain require experience with the material. Your installer is responsible for substrate, setting materials, and method.

Sealing & Care
Natural stone should be sealed with a penetrating sealer and re-sealed periodically in wet and high-traffic areas. Clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner only — vinegar, bleach, ammonia, and acidic cleaners etch marble, limestone, travertine, and onyx permanently. Porcelain does not require sealing. Outdoor stone weathers and shifts in tone over time; this is expected.

Responsibility
Tile & Mosaic Depot supplies material only. We are not responsible for installation, labor costs, substrate conditions, setting materials, product misuse, or damage from handling, sealing, maintenance, or chemicals. No claims, returns, or replacements are accepted on installed material.

California Proposition 65
Some natural stone and porcelain products contain substances known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. Details at www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
