# Arizona Sandstone Buckskin

Arizona Sandstone Buckskin is a tan and gold sandstone flagstone of medium hardness, used for patios, walkways, pool decks and wall caps, and also sold tumbled.

Mid Valley Rock carries it in several thicknesses; stock varies, so call before you come.

Arizona Sandstone Buckskin Colors vary by pallet and wet vs dry. See it in the yard.

Buckskin is a tan and gold color of Arizona Sandstone, a stone that is popular for its huge range of colors. The tan and gold tones sit well next to stucco, wood and warm-toned homes. It is a medium hardness stone and very porous, which affects how you seal it and where you use it. Mid Valley Rock stocks it in several thicknesses and as tumbled flagstone, so one color can cover a lot of ground.

Not sure which to buy? Our [flagstone thickness guide](https://midvalleyrock.com/rock-talk/flagstone-thickness-guide/) and [soft-set vs hard-set](https://midvalleyrock.com/rock-talk/soft-set-vs-hard-set/) notes explain the choice in plain terms.

## Tumbled Buckskin

Mid Valley Rock carries tumbled sandstone in Buckskin and Rosa. Tumbling smooths and rounds the edges.

Tumbled pieces are a good choice for pool coping, wall tops, seating and stepping stones. Arizona Sandstone boulders in Buckskin are also available to tie the whole look together.

## Living with a porous stone

Because Arizona Sandstone is very porous, many owners choose a sealer. Wash the stone, let it dry five to ten days with sprinklers off, and apply in the cool morning.

When the quarry has them, specialty colors such as Black Cherry, Blush, Grand Canyon, Peach, Sedona Red, Sunburst, Wild Orchid and Windrose can also be ordered. Pricing is quoted by phone or at the yard, since stone is sold by weight.

## Popular uses
