River Gray Quartzite Colors vary by pallet and wet vs dry. See it in the yard.

River Gray Quartzite is a straightforward, handsome dark stone. The color is a dark charcoal gray, which gives a patio or path a clean and modern feel. Dark flagstone makes plants look greener and furniture look sharper, and it anchors a design that has a lot of light concrete or pale gravel. It is a good match for homes with gray, white or black trim.

## Dark charcoal gray

River Gray is a dark charcoal gray. When wet, the gray goes darker still.

Read [sealing flagstone](https://midvalleyrock.com/rock-talk/sealing-flagstone/) if you want to hold that deeper color after the stone dries.

## Patios, walkways and paths

[Flagstone](https://midvalleyrock.com/stone/flagstone/) is sold in stand-up select pieces for big coverage and in smaller patio pieces that lie flat on the pallet. Either can work, depending on the size of your space.

A [flagstone walkway](https://midvalleyrock.com/ideas/flagstone-walkway/) in a dark gray pairs well with pale joints of sand or decomposed granite.
