CARVED BY HAND each sphere is carefully sculptured by hand (from solid pieces of stone) to ensure consistency, durability and colour depth
REAL NATURAL SANDSTONE each sculpture is carved from real, solid sandstone rock. The resulting spheres are resistant to the most inclement weather conditions. Leave them outside all year round and they will endure, and age with grace
NATURAL COLOURS the variation of colour in each sphere is a natural feature of sandstone rock. Subtle colour variation within each ball is enhanced when the spheres are damp or wet, and this feature is not achievable in cheaper, cast products. As a result, no two spheres are the same, with each one having its own unique colour variation
NOT JUST ORNAMENTAL SCULPTURES we have many customers who use the spheres to restore or enhance gateways and walls
GRACEFUL AGING over time the surface of the spheres roughen and take on an their own antique appearance. You can choose not to interfere with the process, or periodically clean the stone with soapy water (and a kind brush) to rejuvenate the original colour click here to view an example of a sphere that has been left to age naturally
