2 Thermal / 2 Rock Sides
1.25″ Diameter Hole for Lantern
Manufactured by Westwood Mills

Hand split, cut and lightly sanded, then flame applied to the surface of the stone, breaking down the natural crystals in the granite creating two “smooth” sides.  Then “rocked” on two remaining sides—the same way it was done 100 years ago.
This lustrous granite post captures the character of New England with its beauty and durability.

Variations in Granite: Inherent in the beauty of stone is the fact that no two pieces are exactly the same.
Some of our granite is hand split, which is done by drilling 2”-3” holes in the post and then inserting wedges.
You may find these drill marks on some of the Posts. You may also find variations in veining and color.
These variations in the stone are normal and give the material its timeless natural beauty.
