Flints are the remains of sponges that lived on warm seabeds back when dinosaurs stalked the Earth. When the sponges died, their remains eventually became the microscopic quartz crystals that form the core of a flint. ’Knapping’, or splitting, the flints reveals this core for the first time in over 100 million years.

Our knapped chalk flints are approximately 75–150mm in size. They typically present a blue/grey/black face to the world, bordered by a white chalk skin. Knapped flint also combines well with brick to produce hard-wearing and stylish walling.
