Unique details made of stone
Here’s a gallery of some of our unique details we’ve done with stone. All photos are of our work.
Soapstone horse
Whats nice about the stone business, is that everyday there are new requests on what we can make out of stone. Its almost like a field trip walking through the fabrication shop, to see what new request is being created. Here is a horse that was hand carved from a solid block of soapstone. It was for a backsplash behind the range in a large kitchen, located on a ranch in Montana. Great carving job Tiffany Homchick!
Grey Limestone Trough sink
This was made from 3cm Limestone slab, made to look like a solid piece.
Stone sink
One of our specialties is making custom stone sinks. We can carved them from a solid block, or fabricated them from a slab of your choice. Here is an example of a sink we made out of 8″ thick Calacatta Gold marble block. First we had to cut it from an 8 by 5 foot block. Then we carved the sink and added custom details.

Oiling your soapstone
Did you know when you very first apply mineral oil to your soapstone, it will look green? But don’t fret, after a day or two, it will oxidize to the true darkness it was meant for. Here are a few examples on a PA Original slab. The area on the right was oiled 3 days prior to the rest of the slab. The the last photo shows what the whole slab looks after 3 days of mineral oil.
