Greetings!
Spring is finally here and we could not be more excited! Dwayne & I are ready to hit the road so we can see all of our friends and make new ones. The life of a traveling artist can be adventurous, rewarding and a lot of work. Doing the show circuit helps us connect with other artist and meet our soon to be collectors. Many of our clients become good friends and we look forward to seeing everyone when exhibiting across the country.

Celebrate Earth Day Everyday! 
Did you know that nearly half of consumers expect their outdoor furniture to last only five years or less? According to a 2007 survey by Casual Living magazine that is the rate consumers will replace their outdoor furniture. In a world of "green awareness" consumers should not only consider the process involved to make something, but also the life expectancy. You can feel good about purchasing stone furniture; the rock is over 200 million years old. What that means to you is we are not creating anything that will find its way into a landfill we are recycling what Mother Nature already created.
The other great thing about our sustainable furniture is it won't rust, crack or even blow away! It enhances the surroundings, doesn't detract from the beauty of nature and there are no harsh chemicals used to process or maintain the furniture.
Our customers don't replace their furniture, they don't have to, they actually add to it. Many of our customers are repeat customers that add to their stone furniture collection. The new pieces blend beautifully with the current pieces and become family heirlooms.
Furniture that will last a lifetime, no negative impact on the plant and furniture that actually adds to the beauty of your surrounding are just a few reasons why Stone Furniture is a smart investment.

Dwayne's Bio
As a child Dwayne spent hours cutting and shaping pieces of cardboard paper to create 3D models of motorcycles. Carefully forming each part to fit the bike perfectly and create a replica of an authentic motorcycle. Dwayne's artist talents emerged at a very young age. A self taught artist Dwayne S. Cranford, a Colorado native learned his welding kills in a foundry and took them with him to serve in the United States Army. Later Dwayne spent his days installing natural gas pipeline. On his days off, as a hobby he began applying his welding skills to create steel sculptures. His figurative sculptures are created from materials such as bike chains, concrete nails and scrap steel that had been discarded. 6 years ago he began combining stone with the metal to create durable, weatherproof furniture.
Cranford's work has been shown around Colorado, Nevada, California, Texas, Wyoming and in other parts of the United States. It can be found at The Inn At Aspen, Aspen (CO), The Best Western Pioneer Court, Lusk (WY) and numerous private collections.
Artist Statement
My rock chairs have been compared to something found on the set of the Flintstones, but great care is given to ensure they are both aesthetically pleasing and comfortable. The stone added to discarded steel results in functional furniture inspired by Mother Nature. They are not only weatherproof, but integrate easily into landscapes and cityscapes without intruding on the surrounding beauty.
