Absolutely adore this! Is limestone easy to carve?

I would say it’s fairly hard – much harder than sandstone, but not as hard as marble. It’s a lovely stone to carve, but really does weather. I’ve left this outside for a year or so and it’s turned green. Thanks for commenting.

Wow! This must take patience! Would have been nice to have some perspective.

That’s a good point Abraham – you probably have no idea how big this is. Well, it’s about 2ft high, by 2ft wide – and really heavy. Thanks for taking a look around and for your comments.
