What is 'cultivated stone'?

Tags: Miscellaneous

Hello.

I recently viewed a DIY episode where the term 'cultivated stone' was mentioned quite often. Can someone please email me either a source of information that explains what this product is or simply give me the general definition here.

Thank you!

It is called cultured or manufacuted stone.

Owens Corning Cultured Stone and Eldorado Stone are 2 big brands.

Wow! Some of that stuff looks exactly like real, weathered field stone or flag stone! There doesn't seem to be anyplace that gives details on how it is made...if you know of any I'd be interested in reading it. Thanks again for the explanation.
