How to Select a Good Stone Figure Manufacturer?


The art and craft of creating a stone figure or sculpture is older than antiquity. Many of the world’s most memorable stone sculptures are from ancient civilizations such as the Ancient Egyptians, Romans and Greeks. Stone figures are assembled or carved from rough stone. They are carefully shaped, cut and polished to arrive at a three dimensional form.


Stone is a natural and durable material. It is one of the best mediums to work with because it can resist the test of time. In modern homes, it is not uncommon to see a beautifully carved stone figure gracing the front yard or sunroom.

If you’re considering commissioning a stone figure manufacturer for your home, the suggestions below will help you select the best one.


Determine the Type of Stone Stone figures can be carved from a number of different materials. Some of these materials are granite, soapstone slate and marble. Other less common types of stones that may be used include jade, onyx and sandstone. If you’re confused by the array of choices, ask your stone manufacturer to show you samples of figures made from different stones.


Purpose and Place of the Stone Figure Where do you plan on placing your stone figure? Will it be placed in your formal living room or will it stand proudly amongst your rose plantation? The placement will likely influence the type of stone that will be used to make your sculpture. The location will also determine the subject of your figure. For instance, abstract pieces are best suited for interiors decorated in a contemporary theme. Traditional stone figures such as nymphs, Greek gods and even gnomes are best placed in the garden.


Cost You will have a budget in mind for your stone figure. When discussing your requirements with the stone figure manufacturer, ask for a written estimate. Have at least three estimates to compare and base your decision on which one meets your budget and design requirements.


References Finding a stone manufacturer through a referral is your best chance at working with a skilled craftsman. Manufacturers who have exceeded customers’ expectations are remembered the most and these are the type you should hire. At the same time, manufacturers of ill repute are also easily recalled, so try to find out who they are.


Conduct an Internet Search Most stone manufacturers have an online presence. They often post their portfolio of previous projects. This gives you a chance to visit their site and get a feel for the quality. You can also check for online reviews of a particular manufacturer. By implementing the tips mentioned above, you will be able to find a reliable stone sculpture manufacturer.
