Dry Climate Sample Combo Box
This sample box includes a sample of Gold D.G. Oyster Shell Blend, Silver D.G. Oyster Shell Blend, Oyster Shells, and Oyster Shells Flour.

Gold D.G. Oyster Shell Blend
Our Gold Decomposed Granite 1/4" Minus is blended with premium quality marine composted crushed oyster shell and oyster shell flour that results in the typical traditionally Italian bocce ball court. This mixture is installed over a layer standard 3/8" minus decomposed granite to a depth of 1-1/2 to 3 inches, which equals 1 ton of blended material per 100 to 150 square feet.

Silver D.G. Oyster Shell Blend
Our Sierra Silver Grey Decomposed Granite 1/4" Minus is blended with premium quality marine composted crushed oyster shell and oyster shell flour that results in the typical traditionally Italian bocce ball court. This mixture is used at depth of 2 to 3 inches and is applied over a layer standard 3/8" minus decomposed granite.

Oyster Shells
The role that oyster shell plays in bocce court surface mixtures is to keep the decomposed granite from becoming extremely hard and un-workable for grooming. The oyster shell flakes keep the decomposed granite from completely binding together. Through the normal course of play; ruts, troughs and material displacement takes place. Our decomposed granite oyster shell blend is in traditional Italian bocce ball court surface formula. When grooming out it makes a smooth solid surface to play on. When play is completed it makes for an easy surface to quickly renovate.

Oyster Shell Flour
Oyster shell flour is applied over the top of the finished court surface at the rate of 1/4 to 1/2 pound per square foot resulting in a thin layer of finely crushed oyster shell flour for a very smooth playing surface.

    The square foot coverage per ton of gravel will vary slightly with the surface and designs of the project, waste etc. will affect area coverage. The information is based on average ton and cubic yard amounts. This decorative building stone has naturally occurring colors and shade variations. These are what gives this stone the natural beauty and uniqueness that causes its appeal. Color tones change can sometimes occur with aging or maintenance practices of the location it is installed at therefore exact matching of existing stone may not always occur. During processing or transportation dust will adhere to the rocks and change its appearance on arrival but we guarantee all stone to be true to the specific brand name, type and size ordered or complete exchange including transportation costs will be made.

    After installation is completed the rock should be rinsed off to show the natural beauty and character.
