Cut, break, polish
An abstract stone tells of the block it comes from and of the decisions that changed it. Abstract stone sculptures for sale at 500 to 1,000 euro suit those who appreciate pure material and a clear form.
Abstract stone works at a mid-range budget often use limestone, sandstone, alabaster or marble. The sculptor leaves some passages raw, grinds others smooth and sets recesses that let light through. This creates an interplay between mass and void. Depending on the rock, the form feels warm, soft or severe and cool.

Practical notes
Soft stones like neither water nor acid, and marble reacts to lemon and vinegar. Ask about type of rock, weight and footprint. Always lift heavy pieces from below with both hands. With some distance from the wall, for example on a plinth, the form comes across better. Remove dust with a soft brush. Photos in raking light show the surface, and a photo with a size comparison reveals how big the stone really is.
