The art of the stone carver not only involves the working of stone, but also demands an ability to draw and design, and to understand, interpret and reproduce different periods and styles of architectural ornament. ARCHITECTURAL ORNAMENT FOR RESTORATION Much architectural ornament is associated with the "working parts" of stone buildings, that is, those elements such as stringcourses andhood moulds that are designed to throw water off the face of the building. Effective restoration thus often requires the renwal of such elements and associated ornaments. MODERN ARCHTECTURAL STONE WORK With an increasing use of stone in modern building, there is sometimes an opportunity to include new stone ornament. We are able to design and realise architectural ornament for contemporary buildings FIGURE CARVING As with all stonework, figure carving will decay over time. We are experienced in the reproduction of architectural and garden sculpture. The technique known as "pointing" used by the Greeks and Romans, enables us to recreate the original work with great accuracy. The art of sculpture demands an ability to generate original ideas and designs, generally by drawing and modelling in clay. These are then realised in a variety of materials We specialise in sculptures carved from stone or marble. However, by taking moulds from modelled or carved originals, the sculptures can also be reproduced in metal or resin finishes if required.
Stone is a natural material that will complement and enhance the design of any garden. For texture, colour, durability and sheer class, natural stone will always be superior to synthetic alternatives. From elaborate classical sculpture to a simple sundial or birdbath, we can design and produce work to suit your requirements. Balustrading, paving and hard landscaping can also be undertaken Contact us :- Bhupatbhai R, Sompura - Mob - 98793 42553 Ajay B, Sompura - Mob - 98241 85526 Bhavesh B, Sompura - Mob - 98254 52903 / 99041 37044 / 98985 19094 Shree Ganesh Society Jogashar Road – Dhrangadhra – 363 310 Gujarat – India e - mail - kundan_shilp@yahoo.com |
