The rock guides the hand
Stone is stone, and yet each block tells of its origin: ribs in sandstone, pores in travertine, cleavage in slate. Natural stone sculptures in stone for sale at 1,000 to 2,000 euro suit those who want to appreciate craft and rock together.
Soft stones are worked with chisel and mallet, hard ones with diamond. Every stone has a direction in which it splits or shapes, and good sculptors work with it. That keeps surfaces alive, with visible layering, small inclusions and natural color. Polishing happens only where the stone allows.

Choosing with durability in mind
Ask about the type of rock and whether it is impregnated. Water absorption, frost resistance and weight vary a lot. To narrow the selection further, the choice of rock helps. Put stone sculptures on firm ground, not directly on wet soil. Clean them with a soft brush. A look at the underside is also worthwhile, since it shows working marks and whether the piece stands securely. A note about a signature in the description helps place the work.
