Our “Hainan” selection is curated to provide a beautiful, consistent surface colour with distinct black tones. The Natural Split face gives the stone a rustic, old-world charm similar to European granite setts, but with the modern appeal of dark basalt. It provides the aesthetic appeal of local bluestone pitchers but at a much more accessible price point.
Sourcing:
It is sourced from the premium basalt quarries of Hainan Province, China. This region is famous for producing volcanic stone that is denser and darker than standard bluestone, ensuring longevity and a premium finish.
Available Formats:
We stock these cobbles pre-mounted on mesh sheets for rapid installation, or as loose pieces for custom detailing. Common layouts include 90x90mm or 100x100mm squares on sheets.

Project Applications
Landscapers and homeowners love to install Hainan Bluestone Cobblestones for their versatility in both modern and heritage-style homes.
Unlike organic steppers, these cobbles are uniform in size but rustic in texture. They are typically supplied on mesh sheets to ensure straight lines and consistent gaps (grout lines) during installation.
Hainan Bluestone is a favorite among Melbourne driveway pavers due to its load-bearing capacity and P5 non-slip rating. It is a versatile solution that seamlessly bridges the gap between indoor elegance and outdoor resilience.
Ideal Applications:
-
Driveways: The ultimate solution for a durable, non-slip, and stain-hiding surface.
-
Garden Edging: Perfect for defining garden beds or separating lawn from paved areas.
-
Aprons & Borders: Use as a darker border tile to frame lighter Travertine or Limestone paving.
