Chicago common brick; reclaimed from demolition sites.   Also known as "Old Chicago" brick, these are natural clay,  coal kiln fired brick made in the Chicago area from the late 1800's up until the early 1970's.  They come in varying tones of pink and buff.  Every batch of brick is slightly different in exact shade, but the general hue is usually  light to medium  pink  or salmon color, sometimes with highlights of gold, yellow or even flecks of black.  The famous "Old Chicago" brick have have been a feature of building and paving projects all over the U.S. for generations.
