What is "stonework"?
Stonework refers to the craft of building or decorating with stones, using various techniques to shape and assemble them into structures or features. This method can involve cutting, carving, or arranging stones to create walls, pathways, or decorative elements, often enhancing the durability and aesthetic appeal of a building. Stonework is commonly seen in buildings, bridges, and outdoor features, such as patios and gardens.
