Reclaimed Calf Nose Bricks 3″ (Red)
£3.50 Excl. VAT
Red Calf Nose Brick 3″ Reclaimed
Brick measurement: 8½” L x 4¼” W x 3″ H with a calf nose radius on one side
These large red calf nose bricks are handmade reclaimed bricks. They are a soft red with a rustic, well-weathered surface and patina that would blend well with period properties and restoration projects.
Calf nose bricks have a curved end with a wider radius and more softly contoured profile than bullnose bricks. Calf noses look especially effective used to soften the corners of openings and on brickwork pillars. Calf nose bricks can also be used as window sills but we recommend sealing with two coats of RBS Hardseal clear sealant when laid flat to protect the bricks from water.
Please note, due to the nature of production, the age of the items and process of reclamation, there are likely to be differences in appearance between individual items of the same product. This includes colour, varying minor defects, minor size differences and other minor variations.
