Stone as a Garden Product

So why has stone been so popular as a garden product for making garden ornaments, statues and garden features for so long.

Originally because it was because stone was available for free, was strong, long lasting and was often found on site. Today stone is popular for its aesthetic appeal and its strength. Stone brings a feeling of nature to a garden, and from slate walling to welsh cobbles stone has a place in the garden.

For centuries stone has been formed into sculptures and object of art, and again these are most suitable for outdoor use.

And yes reconstituted stone is making its way into the world of garden design as well, usually cheaper than the real thing, reconstituted stone products have come a long way in recent years, well worth a look.
