Here is a solid granite table that Chris and I built as an outdoor patio table.
The base is two identicle rectangular pieces of granite, each with a notch cut in one end.
The peices slide together to form the cross hair base while the octagonal top boasts a hand chiseled
edge giving it a specific aged look.

The Art of Stone Stacking
During the ever-stressful summer of 2008, we often found ourselves looking for creative ways of
"getting away from it all." Chris, myself and Jay Camosse from Camosse Masonry and Stone of New England
started getting into stone stacking early on in the season. We found it was the perfect way to relax and focus
on something more peaceful. One of the greatest things about stone stacking is that as one sculpture falls another is brought to life. Below are just a few of our successes.

BlueStone Patio on Big Alum Lake
Driveway in Wilbraham
This is a picture of a recent job in Wilbraham, Ma. This is a perfect illustration of a 3000 square foot paver driveway. The product used here was Rocvale Lancaster Grey. The home owner was looking for an old world theme. These pavers have a tumbled surface and come in three sizes. This allowed for us to continue the old world theme. The tumbled pavers are matched up with 13 handsplit granite posts made by Stone of New England out of Charlton, Ma. Steel rings were drilled and apoxyed to support chains. The walked ways are all crowned to fulfill handicap accessability. This is definately rewarding to view after the project was completed

Rainforest Green
This marble kitchen is one the most exciting projects that we've had the pleasure of doing. The first time Chris and I ever set foot a slab warehouse I was like a kid a candy store. We were surrounded by thousands of pieces of stone, from all around the world. There was one type of stone that was just absolutely unbelieveable, and we decided right then that we had to use it. Rainforest Green marble is one of the most beautiful stones in existence, but not many companies will try and use it. Its extremely fragile because the stone has very large, soft veins that run throughout, making it incredibly stressful to work with. A true masterpiece!

Custom Patio
This is a custom patio design project that we did this past summer in East LongMeadow. The homeowner had some different ideas that he wanted to tie together, so we were able to use those ideas to develop this elaborate patio area. The entire patio is approximately 750 sf. with a raised circular area that ties in beautifully with a custom cut bluestone step and pennsylvania fieldstone riser.
