Alto Bierzo (anllares) is a natural slate from the Alto Bierzo region of Spain. The stone displays a consistent grey colour, a smooth fine‑grained texture and occasional faint cleavages that give it a refined, matte appearance. Its durability and low water absorption make it ideal for flooring, wall cladding, outdoor paving and landscape applications. The best finishes are honed or brushed, which enhance the stone’s natural elegance while preserving slip resistance. Marmi di Carrara supplies Alto Bierzo in 2‑3 cm thick blocks and slabs, offers cut‑to‑size service and provides real‑time photos of each slab before purchase.
