Pale Stone

Within the Microcement range, Pale Stone carries an evenly balanced undertone and white-grey undertones — the gallery-floor neutral in overall character. Light without being empty — there's pigment here, you can feel it. The natural home for Pale Stone is ensuites — and increasingly scullery and pantry walls. Borrows its character from Scandinavian interiors and re-reads them in a modern context. Works alongside polished concrete, mirror, smoked glass and chrome ironmongery.

FAQs about Pale Stone

Questions clients ask about this shade

Does Pale Stone hold up in north-facing rooms?+

Yes — Pale Stone carries enough tonal weight that it doesn't go flat or grey in cool daylight. The white-grey undertone is what stops it bleaching out.

Is Pale Stone suitable for a shower or wet-room?+

Pale Stone can be specified for wet-rooms with our standard microcement wet-zone build: primer, two base coats with reinforcing mesh, two finishing coats, then a tanking membrane and two coats of polyurethane sealer. The colour itself doesn't change suitability — finish and sealer do.

What does Pale Stone pair with from your range?+

We most often pair Pale Stone with the three closest shades in its family — see the pairings panel below. Beyond that, works alongside polished concrete, mirror, smoked glass and chrome ironmongery.
