It is ideal for the complete beginner to stone carving, or even those that want to consider it but need some serious information first.Amazon let you get a good idea what many books are about by being able to view the table of contents and a sample of the actual content. Unfortunately this book is not one of those at the time I write. So here's an overview of the content to help you decide if the book is for you.First there are some short but very useful introductory chapters on tools, materials, safety, carving basics and periods and styles of stone carving.The main part of the book is divided into four sections. These sections contain a total of 18 very practical projects in stone carving for the home and the garden. These start as simple as you can get - a rectangle of limestone bearing an incised number for a house number plaque - right up to challenging but stunning sculptures including an egyptian cat and a pedestal depicting a classical dolphin. Most of the designs use limestone, which the author has good justification for the beginner to use. They all have excellent scale designs to copy, thorough instructions and guidance and are beautifully and copiously photographed.The book is excellently produced by The Guild of Master Craftsmen Publications and is written in a pleasant friendly style.ContentsIntroductionStone-carving toolsStone – the materialHandling stone safelyThe basics of stone carvingPeriods ans styles of stone carvingThe ProjectsPart 1 Getting started with flat panels1 House number plaque2 Fleur-de-lys panel3 Marble Ivy PanelPart 2 Developing skills with rocky ruins4 Norman frieze5 Roman frieze6 Grapevine frieze7 Gothic crocket8 Gothic boss9 Parthenon fragment10 Baroque angel facePart 3 Decorative carvings in the round11 Oak leaf candle stand12 Classical vase finial13 Grape leaf bowl14 Shell dishPart 4 Figure sculptures15 Egyptian cat16 Egyptian head17 Gothic griffon18 Dolphin pedestalGlossaryCommon mouldingsAbout the authorBibliographyIndex ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ inspiration for a new hobby *by E***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 January 2018* Husband seems very pleased with the book which was part of Christmas gift - he doesn't agree with it all but it's one person's experience of stone carving, it's not the bible of stone carving. Anyway he's happy and has had his nose stuck in it a lot, so I'm happy. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stone carving for the home and garden. *by A*** on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 February 2019* For a novice hobby carver like myself this is an excelllent resource. Clear explanations and step by step photos guide you through each of the projects, and there are plenty to choose from. Really whetted my appetite to keep on improving and trying new designs. I would have no hesitation in recommending this book to anyone new to the hobby. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/50911007-stone-carving-for-the-home-and-garden](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/50911007-stone-carving-for-the-home-and-garden) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
