Trendy Black Porcelain 5mm Chamfered Step

Install a Trendy Black Porcelain Garden Step, in matt charcoal with a hint of quartz-like sparkle, to contrast with light-coloured paving and create a handy signal of a level change in a large patio. Consider combining the porcelain garden step with the light-coloured Sandy White Porcelain Paving for a colour difference that maintains textural continuity. We recommend that all customers read our product & installation guides before buying.

Porcelain is manufactured in batches and therefore the colour and texture may vary from batch to batch.

This may mean that the porcelain you receive when ordered may differ from the samples or showroom displays viewed before purchasing.

Different sizes are manufactured in different batches. It is therefore not recommended to mix sizes.

If you feel this may be a concern for you, please contact our sales team who will be happy to advise you accordingly.

We recommend keeping a record of the 'batch colour code' of the delivered porcelain in case further stock is required. This can be found on the box that the porcelain is packaged in, and it is usually a number followed by a letter, or a six digit number.

We have carried out a lifecycle assessment of our products.
