Brick Shaping |
Shaped bricks used to construct windowsills, pilasters, the piscina, and other features are formed using techniques of 17th-century red (brick) masons. Restoration mason Jimmy Price learned traditional methods from master masons in the U.S. and Scotland and is in turn passing these skills on to a new generation of masons. Brick forming is a process of hand cutting and rubbing bricks to conform to a template.
