Hand Carved Stone

Stone carvers have been employed for centuries to enhance and beautify public, private and sacred architecture. From ancient temples to gothic cathedrals, roman forums to office buildings, palazzos to bungalows, hand-carved stone has added a truly unique touch.

Whether it be a custom stone fireplace, architectural detail, bench fountain or statuary, hand-carved stone can add beauty and value to any building and provide a personal touch to any home.

We can work with you to come up with a unique design, or from existing plans or blueprints. Due to the nature of hand carving there are no pre-set sizes or shapes- virtually anything is possible: Ornate carvings, crisp and modern designs, or simple and rustic, carved stone can fit into and enhance any style.

Unlike cast stone which is a mixture of cement and crushed stone poured into ready-made molds, natural limestone, which was formed millions of years ago from the bodies and shells of living creatures, has qualities that can not be equaled by cast stone products. The texture, color and overall feel of natural stone, carved by hand, is the result of a partnership between the stone and the carver. Each piece of stone has its own unique character, and it is up to the skill, artistry and craftsmanship of the carver to bring each piece to life.
