Walapai Chocolate flagstone and wall stone

Walapai Chocolate is a rich, dark stone with a surprise in the surface. The body is a deep purple-brown, and iridescent white swirls move across it, catching light as you walk by. It is a dense quartzitic sandstone, sold as flagstone and as wall stone. Its dark tone looks sharp against light concrete, pale gravel and bright green plants.

Color and texture

The body color is a deep purple-brown. The white swirls add movement, so no two pieces look alike.

Wet the stone and the colors deepen further. Our wet look vs natural article explains how sealers can hold that look.

Flagstone and wall stone forms

As flagstone, Walapai Chocolate makes a bold patio or walkway.

As wall stone, it builds retaining walls, planters and seat walls with a dark, elegant finish.

Using the same stone for the patio and the wall behind it gives the yard one clear color story. Pick flagstone and wall stone on the same visit so the purple-brown tones match.

Designing with a dark stone

A dark stone stands out on walls and borders, and next to light gravel or decomposed granite.

Pricing is quoted by phone or at the yard since stone is sold by weight. Bring your plan so staff can help with color and quantity.
