Stone

Sonia carves these stone panels and bowls using Irish stone and hand chisels – they are then sanded with different grades to create a smooth finish. They are inspired by stylised designs from different cultures.
See below for details of costs and how to order a commission 

JULY 2020. I will be working in a large commission for the next few months so will be unable to take on smaller work during this time . If you are interested in getting a sundial made I can pass on details of another sundial maker based in Cork . Just send me a message through the contact page . 

 

Sonia also works on larger sculptural work and her sculptures can be seen on http://soniacaldwell.wixsite.com/sculpture

THE STONE

Kilkenny Limestone is a hard limestone quarried in the centre of Ireland, and has adorned many Irish and foreign buildings as well as being the main stone of choice for Irish sculptors.

Valentia Slate is sourced from a small quarry on Valentia Island, Co. Kerry, one of the most scenic places in Ireland. It was famously used to roof the Houses of Parliament in London.

STONE CRAFT PIECES

They can be displayed indoors on a wooden stand (offered with the piece) or hung on a strong wall fixture.

Outdoors, they can also be hung on a strong wall fixture or they can also work well incorporated into the garden amongst rocks, plants or other garden features. They can also be set into a wall with dowels . Please specify this before you want to buy a piece and Sonia can help attach the right fixtures.
