Deep within the earth, in age-old quarries, our story begins. Here, limestone has rested for eons, holding within it tales of ancient seas and long-forgotten landscapes. The artisans of Ancient Surfaces, with their trained eyes, select the perfect slab, seeing potential where others see mere rock.

In the skilled hands of these craftsmen, the limestone begins its transformation. Every chisel mark, every curve carved, is done with precision and passion. The design is not just about aesthetics; it’s about honoring the stone’s legacy. As the days pass, what was once a rugged slab starts to take the shape of a mantle, ready to become the centerpiece of a home.
