Description
Bullnosed stone refers to a specific type of stone that is shaped with a rounded or semi-circular edge along one or more sides. It is commonly used as a finishing element in construction and architectural projects, particularly for edges or tops of walls, pillars, steps, or other structures where a smooth and rounded edge is desired.
The term “bullnose” refers to the shape of the stone’s edge, which resembles the rounded nose of a bull. The rounded profile of the capping stone provides a soft and aesthetically pleasing transition between the vertical or horizontal surfaces it covers, adding a touch of elegance and safety to the structure.
Bullnosed stones are typically made from natural stone materials such as limestone, granite, sandstone, or even concrete. The stone is carefully shaped and finished to achieve the desired bullnose profile, ensuring a smooth and even curvature along the edge.
