We have used our experience of stone carving to put together a box that contains everything that a beginner will need to carve a sculpture from stone.  This includes chisels, stone and full instructions.

.  The complete contents are:

• A 180x180x180 (7"x7"x7") piece of top quality Bath limestone

• A carver's mallet

• A claw chisel

• A standard chisel

• A punch chisel

• An illustrated guide to carving stone

• A small practice piece of Bath limestone

• A non-slip mat

• Safety Glasses & Dust Mask

• specialist masonry pencil

• Templates that provide outlines of the carving project

• Sandpaper for rubbing out pencil marks

This really is all you need to carve a sculpture. 

The carving guide in the kit  talks you through carving a little snail.  The guide has 30 pages and over 25 colour pictures  that lead you through the process of turning a square block of stone into a sculpture of a snail.

The pictures to the left of this page show you the process- these pictures are all taken

from the guide.  You can see the finished snail at the bottom of this page

The kit will be delivered by courier in one box that weighs about 18kg.
