Patent ID: 8747019

Claim:
An artificial flagstone for use in combination with other ones of the artificial flagstone for covering a surface with a natural random look, the flagstone having a generally hexagonal body comprising: a first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth consecutive vertices; a first pair of first and second sides extending radially from the first vertex; a second pair of third and fourth sides extending radially from the third vertex; and a third pair of fifth and sixth sides extending radially from the fifth vertex; wherein the sides of at least one of the first, second and third pair of sides have at least one split deviation along their length and are respectively rotational images of each other, whereby in use in combination with said other flagstones, each one of said sides is matingly engageable with the sides of an equivalent pair of sides of a neighbouring flagstone; wherein all of the pairs of sides have distinctive markers located at the vertices guiding a lay out of a plurality of the flagstone on a surface; wherein the distinctive markers consist of thin plate-shaped members protruding from the vertices; and wherein the distinctive markers located at the second, fourth and sixth vertices are substantially identical to each other, whereas the distinctive markers located at the first, third and fifth vertices are different from each other and different from the markers of the second, fourth and sixth vertices.
