Dressed Stone

Dressing of Stone is the working of quarried stone into the shape and size required for use. This can be necessary as stones obtained from quarrying generally do not have the exact required dimensions or finish.

Stone dressing requires considerable technical skill, as well as a good understanding of materials, design drawings and specifications.

Stones may be dressed at the quarry site itself, as this reduces the weight that needs to be transported and so reduces costs.

Stone dressing can be carried out using a variety of tools depending upon the finish required. Rough finishes may be achieved using quarry hammers and chisels, whereas rubbed or polished finishes may be achieved by rubbing or grinding a cut stone surface, either by hand (using sand and water, pumice stone, and so on), or by machine.
