Plane, edge, shadow
A modern block of stone lives from the relation between ground planes and untouched roughness. Modern stone sculptures for sale between 1,000 and 2,000 euro are best judged with an eye on edges, polish and footprint.

In the living space
Modern stone pieces go well with exposed concrete, oak and large windows. A pale limestone sits calmly on dark wood, dark basalt stands out against white walls. Plan on a fixed spot, because such a piece is rarely carried around.
Check before you commit
Weight, dimensions and type of rock should be in the listing. Ask about cracks or chipped edges and whether the stone was treated. A certificate or a signature on the underside rounds out a good offer.
