Cresswell Black Bricks

Cresswell black waterstruck bricks give you a waterstruck face in a deep blackish-blue tone with a refined, tactile surface. The colour is created by blue reduction and a second firing, so it runs through the body of the brick rather than sitting on the surface. Each unit is cut with four true faces for flexible laying and tidy coursing on site. Suitable for new builds, extensions, and refurbishments.

Why choose Cresswell Black

  • Waterstruck texture with subtle natural variation.
  • Blue-reduced and double-fired for a stable, through-body colour.
  • Four true faces for versatile bonds and neat detailing.

Images are indicative. Colour and finish can vary with firing; view reference projects or request samples before specifying.
