What Sets Norstone's Corner System Apart?
What Sets Norstone's Corner System Apart? Corners are one of the most important details to choosing any stacked stone veneer for a fireplace. So we poured over every detail and concept for making the perfect corner.
After carefully manufacturing and testing one iteration after another, we eventually concluded that – for a thin natural stacked stone veneer to “turn a corner” properly – it had to be crafted using “fingers” that seamlessly interlock…as if they were made that way in nature.
There are other ways to finish a corner, such as using trim options, however after renovating tens of thousands of fireplaces we recommend you don’t settle for less than the finger joint system when it comes to this detail.
