Many homeowners dream of incorporating natural stone and brick into their design, but the cost, delivery and installation challenges make these materials a less-than-practical option for most. Enter, Eldorado Stone, manufacturer of the most authentic-looking stone and brick veneer—crafted with such attention to detail that it is virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. Meaning, you can enjoy the true look and feel of natural stone and brick with the added benefits of enhanced durability, versatility, sustainability and performance. All, without sacrificing style.
Eldorado Stone’s stone and brick veneer extends the elegance of any interior space into the great outdoors, effortlessly. By incorporating manufactured stone veneer (MSV) into focal points, like an exterior entrance, interior foyers, mudrooms, fireplaces, retaining walls or kitchen backsplashes, you can create anchors that visually and thematically tie your indoor and outdoor spaces together, allowing you to carry the same architectural and aesthetic theme throughout. Whether a cozy living room that leads out to a patio or an outdoor kitchen that mirrors your indoor style—MSV creates a harmonious flow wherever it goes and integrates well with a variety of other materials. And its lightweight composition, at just a few inches thick, makes for quick and easy installation.
With hundreds of color palettes, crisp textures and extensive profiles, Eldorado Stone’s products are handcrafted to honor the standard set by Mother Nature, herself. “Our MSV products are created using concrete mixtures that are poured into unique molds, colored using mineral pigments and hand-painted to not only replicate, but further improve upon the look of naturally sourced stone and traditional brick,” says Sarah Lograsso, Director of Marketing and Product Design for Eldorado’s parent company, Westlake Royal Stone Solutions. This extensive, detailed process ensures no two pieces look exactly alike—capturing the rich color and textural variation found in nature, while providing a durable solution that can withstand the elements and maintain its beauty over time.
Whether you’re looking for a traditional tone or a sleek, modern aesthetic, Eldorado Stone’s products can be tailored to meet any need or style. Its wide selection of stone and brick veneers in versatile colors and textures offers endless applications for creating a personalized, one-of-a-kind design. Adding to its design flexibility, MSV is also a more cost-effective solution and creates less waste than typical stone and brick structures—both of which have contributed to its growing demand across the industry. By using MSV, you can achieve the natural visual appeal you desire with a smaller environmental footprint.
Over the past several years, Eldorado Stone has worked to modernize its portfolio with more linear offerings and unique color options for statement-making opportunities. “Our teams are continually seeking to expand the versatility of our products in both color and texture, and we work hand-in-hand with a wide variety of builders, architects, designers and installers to make sure we’re bringing new options that resonate in the current market,” Lograsso says. New offerings, like wood-look profiles that feature the authentic textural characteristics and patina of wood, but in an entirely new MSV format for greater longevity and color consistency.
