Bedford Fieldstone Stacked Veneer Corners - 1 Piece

Bedford Fieldstone Stacked Veneer Corners" are the L-shaped pieces specifically designed to create seamless and authentic outside corners for installations using Bedford Fieldstone veneer. While "stacked veneer" often implies a dry-stacked (groutless) look, "Bedford Fieldstone" itself, being a fieldstone profile, can be installed with or without visible grout joints. The key is that these corner pieces ensure the natural, rugged aesthetic wraps cleanly around any angle.

Here's what you need to know about Bedford Fieldstone Stacked Veneer Corners:

Key Characteristics:

• Material: Like the flat pieces, these corners are typically crafted from natural marble, showcasing its inherent durability and unique variations in veining and subtle color shifts.

• Profile: They embody the "fieldstone" profile, meaning they mimic naturally occurring, irregularly shaped stones. The corner pieces are designed to integrate with these varied shapes, often having differing "short" and "long" returns to create a natural, interlocked appearance at the corner.

• Finish: They feature a split-face finish, exposing the rugged, textured natural face of the stone. This provides a three-dimensional depth that is crucial for the authentic fieldstone look.

• Color Palette: They perfectly match the distinctive warm brown and sophisticated gray hues of Bedford Fieldstone, ensuring color consistency throughout your project.

• Function: Their L-shape allows the veneer to turn a 90-degree corner without exposing unsightly cut edges of the flat pieces. This creates the illusion of a solid stone wall, much like traditional masonry.

• Installation: While Bedford Fieldstone can be installed with or without grout, the term "stacked" in "Stacked Veneer Corners" emphasizes the tight fit and natural overlap these pieces are designed to achieve, whether a thin grout line is used or a more traditional dry-stacked appearance is desired.

Why are they essential?

• Authentic Visuals: They are critical for achieving a truly realistic fieldstone appearance. Without them, corners would look artificial or require extensive, difficult on-site cutting and blending of flat pieces.

• Seamless Transitions: They allow the stone pattern and texture to flow continuously around pillars, wall ends, fireplace surrounds, and exterior building corners.

• Simplified Application: These pre-formed corners greatly reduce the labor and skill required to create sharp, clean, and durable corners compared to attempting to miter cut irregular flat stones.

• Enhanced Durability: For exterior installations, properly installed corner pieces reduce exposed seams, minimizing potential points of moisture intrusion and enhancing the longevity of the stone veneer system.

Common Applications:

• Exterior Home Corners: Providing a robust and aesthetically pleasing finish to residential and commercial building exteriors.

• Fireplace Corners: Creating a snug, rustic, and integrated look for fireplace surrounds and hearths.

• Architectural Features: Perfect for wrapping columns, pillars, and other structural elements that require a stone finish.

• Outdoor Living Spaces: Essential for finishing outdoor kitchen islands, barbecue surrounds, and garden wall corners.

When planning a project with Bedford Fieldstone, always ensure you calculate the linear footage of your outside corners to order the appropriate quantity of these specialized corner pieces, in addition to the square footage of your flat veneer.
