Dear Art Lover,
It pains me to say that I have to sell
some stone. I have a huge block of 36” x
18” x 18” Colorado Yule Marble. It was
cut from the quarry in Marble, Colorado, in 2003 near where they were searching
for stone replacements for the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Washington,
D.C. It is a lovely piece of rock and I
had wonderful plans to carve a male torso from it. The block weighs almost 1200 pounds and the
price is $1200. I drove this from
Colorado to my (now former) home in central Texas (Bastrop County, SE of
Austin). Pickup only, although we will
help you load the stone into your truck or van.
I am also selling the
large {Texas) limestone block that you see here being lifted with an A-frame
and chains. [The Colorado Yule block is
the white one in the background.] I do
not know the weight or dimension on this stone, but is it larger than the Yule. However, limestone is less expensive than
marble… I will accept $600 for that stone… a mermaid, can you not see her?
I also have several
smaller stones. The next featured is a
gorgeous piece of the famous quasi-transparent white Italian alabaster. I paid $600 and that is what I would like to receive
for this beauty. She is 244 pounds. There is another piece of Italian alabaster
that I started to carve into a giant snail shape… if interested in that one let
me know and we can see what we may work out.
And you see a piece of marble in the foreground.
I will be returning to
Texas in early April and deciding on the fate of a lot of my belongings there
as I prepare to move most of my life to my new home in Italy. I am sure that I will have other art
materials for sale, but until I return and have some time, I may not know.
If you are interested
in being contacted once I have more information, please let me know soon.. this
trip is short and packed with so much travel and visiting along with work that
the more organized I am before I arrive, the more I may help you receive something
you want.
Thank you so much for
hanging out with me and reading along!
Peace,
Kelly
