A Connecticut stone carver who uses traditional methods, I create memorials, headstones and landscape pieces with a classic, vintage feel. With over 30 years as a mason in CT, I began to transition over to stone carving after developing a love for old churches, headstones, architectural details, etc., and after realizing that the pieces I loved most were 100 years old or more. Where could people find new hand-crafted pieces today?

 

Whether I’m hand-shaping a newly cut piece of granite, or carving into a stone that I’ve quarried myself, I’ll use a variety of methods, hand-tools and styles to make each piece unique with what I like to call an “old-school” feel. While I will occasionally work with brownstone, marble, or limestone, it is granite that I most enjoy carving, both for its everlasting durability and for the challenge of it.
