Decorative Aggregate - Small, Washed Shell

Small, washed shell decorative aggregate is a natural material composed of crushed and cleaned seashells. The washing process removes dust, dirt, and organic debris, resulting in a clean, bright appearance that enhances both visual appeal and functionality. The small size ensures a smooth, even surface, making it ideal for detailed landscaping and design work.

This aggregate is commonly used in residential and commercial settings for garden pathways, patios, driveways, and as a top dressing for planters or flower beds. Its washed attribute minimizes dust and tracking, while the shell composition offers excellent drainage and a unique coastal aesthetic. The small size is easy to spread and provides a comfortable walking surface, though it may shift under heavy traffic and is not suitable for high-compaction needs. Overall, small, washed shell decorative aggregate is a popular choice for projects seeking a clean, low-maintenance, and visually striking finish.
