Traditional Handmade Facing Bricks
Russet Grey  

 

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 Russet Grey is a dark buff/grey facing brick that includes subtle hints of red that give a mature and warm character to finished brickwork. The brick also blends well with Charnwood Light Russets to give a pleasing light multi.
