looks nice. it's no different in laying them. just go vertical instead of horizontal. meeting the sides w/the front wall may be a bit of an issue. horizontal they have corner pieces. you may ask about the edging from the manufacturer if doing vertical.

Any ideas what kind and color of stone this is? Can not find any info from this picture. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, all input is helpful.

cissieb,,,found some of these that may help.

the slate random bar mosaic sheet tile (Anatolia is one brand)

slate and glass

Splitface slate 6x24 ledger stone panels

This stone is much more narrow ledgestone than we typically see.

It has to be in order to make that curve.
