Desert Wind is a light, quiet stone. The sandstone is pale tan, a color that brightens a shaded yard and stays calm in full sun. At Mid Valley Rock it comes tumbled, which means the pieces have been run through a machine until the edges are soft and rounded. The result looks relaxed and feels good to the touch.

Pale tan sandstone

Light stone makes a space feel open. Pale tan works with nearly any house color, and it lets plants, furniture and pool water carry the stronger color in the yard.

Ask to see a piece wet and dry. If you like the wet color, a sealer can hold some of that look. Our page on wet look vs natural explains the choice.

Why choose tumbled

Tumbled flagstone is used where a smooth edge matters: pool coping, the tops of walls and places where people sit. The rounded edge is kind to bare feet and hands.

It also suits paths and patios when you want an aged, softened look. See more options on the tumbled flagstone page and ideas on pool coping.

Planning your order

Bring measurements. For coping and wall tops, measure the running length. For a patio or path, measure length and width. Staff will turn that into a weight.

Stock changes as pallets sell, so call before you drive over. For a large job, tell staff the full scope so the stone comes from one matching lot.

Popular uses

  • Pool coping
