 Indian Sandstone is a sedimentary rock composed essentially of quartz grains cemented by siliceous, felspathic, calcareous cementing matters. Sandstone is the youngest of the quartz-based stones, which eventually turns into quartzite as the sandstone is subjected to heat and pressure. Textures within the sandstone layers such as cross bedding and ripple marks are clues to the origin of the layers as shallow, inter-tidal or delta sediments. The colours of sandstone depend on the mineral contents and impurities in the sand. Generally, the sandstone is available in light grey, dark grey, light brown, dark brown, red, beige, pink, green, yellow, white, mint, teak and rainbow.
Sandstone was a common building material in India for larger structures, before reinforced concrete came into use in the middle of late 1800's. Nevertheless, it is still put into various purposes such as for flooring or as paving materials since they are dug out from the ground in individual layers.
There is something about natural stones, particularly Indian natural stones that turn them so attractive before all the natural stone lovers across the world. The demand for natural stones is associated with their comprehensive strength and durability. Some sandstone is honed for a smoother finish and used for both interior and exterior applications. It is also used as flagstone, step tread, wall coping, swimming pool surround, etc for residential and commercial applications.
