Attractive 37″ Standing Stone or Plinth Covered in Hand Carved Markings

Description

A large, upright rectangular block of reclaimed natural stone, showing heavy weathering and historic punching marks from hand carving techniques.

Dimensions:

Height – 37″

Square – 16″ x 17″

Weathered sandstone or limestone with a coarse texture and earthy tan, gray, and buff coloration.

The face features heavy, hand-carved indentations and dimples, typical of historic point-tooling or scabbling techniques.

The stone is heavily covered in dried green and brown moss, lichen, and natural patina from long-term outdoor exposure.

Blocks of this style and patina typically originate from the 19th century or earlier. They were commonly used as decroative pieces, either stand alone or as a plinth for a decorative piece.
