Hand thrown bricks have a subtlety of colour and texture that give new buildings a feeling of maturity and a more mellow appearance. Whether a building is intended to blend with existing surroundings or make a 'statement' in its own right, the choice of colour and texture for handmade facing bricks is of the utmost importance. The wide range of products available from Charnwood Forest Brick Ltd greatly simplifies this process.

The Multi Brindle is one of the Home Counties favourite facing bricks. It offers a wide range of colours that can be enhanced by introducing a percentage of Ashby Red bricks. The Multi Brindle includes a distinctive purple colour - not blue - that is rarely found with modern production methods.
