KRC Rock Presents...

“Romancing the Stone”
Featuring: Yellow Osage


At KRC Rock we are passionate about our products and believe that each of our stones have a unique story to tell. Utilizing natural stone forged from the earth itself adds a primal beauty to your home and landscape that can be as unique as a fingerprint. Knowing the type of rock, its origin and the process by which it has entered your landscaping or countertops is an amazing story that goes beyond the name on the label. 



This month KRC Rock presents… Yellow Osage


Where the sun kisses the earth, you will find the bright radiance of the Yellow Osage stone. The Yellow Osage is a much harder limestone due to its deep quartzite base properties, making it a great building product. As if it were scorched by the rays of the sun, the stone’s color is a vibrant and warm mixture of yellows and oranges. With a rough surface texture and chopped edges, the Yellow Osage works very well in thin veneer applications. It is a perfect application for achieving a Tuscan or Mediterranean look with your home and provides stunning curb appeal. Yellow Osage is an exclusive product to KRC Rock and is available in sizes of thin veneer of up to 10” high and no less than 4” wide.
