Edited the title to make it clear

52 points

Found the term for it after diving through a long google rabbithole:

“Rockface Bricks”

People seem to be confusing my title with wanting to find the type of stone, that isn’t what I wanted

I was just looking for the name of rockface bricks before I knew they where called that

If you’re talking about the finish on the stone, you can try searching “quarry faced stone”, “rough faced stone”, or “split faced stone” those should help.

I think some of you are missing that regardless of whether or not this one is fake brick facing or real brick facing, he wants to know what the real bricks with that texture are called.

These are very common in central Texas. The real stuff is called “caliche” but stuff like what you posted looks more like chiseled blocks. Search for “chiseled” or “hand-chiseled”.

“Rusticated Bricks” according to Architectural Digest. Its supposed to give a heavier, more natural look. Almost as if the structure was growing out of the ground.
