Their work was known as cobbing—an early stage of the process whose traces would ordinarily disappear as the stone was finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eHere, a contemporary master lapidarist has polished the quartz while deliberately keeping those working surfaces intact. The artisans of the past and present never shared a workbench, yet their decisions meet within the same stone. Looking down through its polished surface, you can still see the evidence of an earlier way of working.
