Ask Mid Valley Rock what is on the pallets before you come, and bring your wall height and length. River Gray Colors vary by pallet and wet vs dry. See it in the yard. River Gray is a modern classic. It is a dark charcoal quartzite cut into mini ledge, thin, narrow strips that stack into tight horizontal lines. The result is clean and contemporary, great on an outdoor kitchen, planter or accent wall. The deep gray works with white, black and wood tones alike, and it makes green plants look even greener. Being quartzite, it is hard and dense. ## Charcoal and clean lines The dark charcoal gray gives a wall a calm look. Mini ledge strips create fine horizontal shadows that add texture without busy color. Because mini ledge is narrow, it wraps well around corners and fits small features like mailbox posts and pillar caps without looking bulky. Under outdoor lights at night, the strips cast fine shadows that show off the texture. ## What mini ledge is used for Mini ledge faces outdoor kitchens, planters, columns, seat walls and entry features. It is typically set with mortar over a solid backing. See [stone veneer ideas](https://midvalleyrock.com/ideas/stone-veneer/) and [wall stone](https://midvalleyrock.com/stone/wall-stone/) for more options. For a finished look, top a River Gray planter or seat wall with a flat stone cap in a lighter or matching tone. ## Designing with River Gray River Gray pairs with light flagstone like [Silver Amber](https://midvalleyrock.com/stone/silver-amber/) for strong contrast, or with [Mt. Moriah](https://midvalleyrock.com/stone/mt-moriah/) for a gray-on-gray look. Measure wall height and length before you call.
