Publisher's Note
Soapstone may very well be the oldest stone used by sculptors, and it is just as popular today as it was centuries ago. Anyone interested in stone carving will want to begin with this material.

Industry Reviews
A soft, easily carved stone that polishes beautifully, soapstone is a favorite medium of ethnic carvers, most notably the Inuit of North America. Easily obtained, it can be worked with very few special tools. Swiss sculptor Haberstich gives an overview of the worldwide uses of soapstone, with full-color photos of soapstone samples from many countries. Following general instructions for working and shaping the stone, there are step-by-step projects for jewelry, desk sets, household items, and figures. A gallery of artists' works provides additional ideas. This is a useful book covering a somewhat unusual subject.
