The sculpture is then heated and a polish is melted into the stone. Finally it is buffered to leave a wonderfully tactile surface, almost irresistible to touch. \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEnquire today on 0800 772 3253 or \u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.africanmastersofstone.co.uk\/pages\/contact-us\" title=\"Contact page\"\u003eget in touch by email\u003c\/a\u003e,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"artist\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWilliam Chewa as with many of our artists started sculpting at the age of 13.
