Known for its softness and ease of manipulation, soapstone has been favored by artists and craftsmen across cultures for its ability to transform into intricate masterpieces. This versatile stone, also known as steatite, holds a special place in the world of art, offering a rewarding and tactile experience to those who choose to work with it. Workability and Carving Process: The primary allure of soapstone lies in its easy workability. Unlike harder stones, such as granite or marble, which demand powerful tools and substantial effort, soapstone can be shaped using basic hand tools.
