COLUMBUS, Ohio – The popular product family of BellaStone® Panels and BellaStone® Architectural Columns from Exterior Portfolio® by Crane is now available in an exciting new color called Bordeaux. The columns are also available in a versatile new 14″ size. Featuring all the detail, shadowing and texture of fine, quarried stone, but without needing installation by a professional stonemason or ongoing maintenance, BellaStone® Panels and Architectural Columns provide homeowners with beautiful stone accents for siding, fencing, landscaping and porch railings and decking.
The wonderful new accent color in the BellaStone collection, Bordeaux, incorporates rich red hues, mellow grays and full-bodied brown tones of French wine country, which is available in both the panels and the columns. Inspired by the French countryside, Bordeaux joins the BellaStone shades of Tuscan (Earth-tone shade) and Torino (gray-toned shade). Like all BellaStone colors, Bordeaux is available in the same popular ledge-stone style, marrying the timeless beauty of stone with the true installation ease and making it perfect for a variety of landscape and architectural styles found all over the U.S and Canada.
Adding to versatility, BellaStone columns are now available in two new sizes, 14″x14″x16″ and 14″x14″x38″ – perfect for decking and fencing, and gives installers the option to create desired heights, widths and profiles for multiple design configurations. Also available in 20″x20″x16″ and 20″x20″x38″, BellaStone Architectural Columns are specially engineered and can be mounted using a variety of popular post sizes ranging from a 1 5/8″- 2″ galvanized pole to a 6″ x 6″ treated wood post. Once mounted, BellaStone Architectural Columns nicely accent any front or back yard space.
The new color and size are the latest update to the popular family of BellaStone products. Launched in 2007, BellaStone has been recognized by many trade and consumer magazines as one of the industry’s most innovative new products. BellaStone Panels and Architectural Columns capitalize on years of research and development. Each requires no painting and no ongoing maintenance. The long-lasting surface resists harsh environmental conditions. Each BellaStone shade offers authentic stone designs without the excessive labor and other complications of typical stone installation. It reduces traditional labor and installs at least fifty percent faster than traditional stone, while offering all the beauty and aesthetics of natural stone. All BellaStone products offer a 50-year limited warranty.
