Stone Conversations is a resource for all who work with stone -- by hand, eye or imagination. Our international membership includes sculptors, carvers, stonemasons, architects, geologists and quarry workers -- artisans, students, professionals -- all learning from each other. The main focus of discussion is stone as a physical material (eg: comparative properties, methods, tools), but also as a component of our working lives (eg: suppliers, markets, workshops, training), and as a material with cultural connotations (eg: landscapes, architecture, art).
