Ashlar

Ashlar is a term used in masonry to describe carefully cut and shaped stones used in building walls or structures. These stones are worked to precise dimensions and smooth surfaces, allowing them to fit tightly together without the need for mortar or with minimal mortar joints. Ashlar provides a strong, durable, and aesthetically appealing finish, commonly seen in historic and classical architecture. Its precise craftsmanship and uniform appearance make it ideal for creating elegant and long-lasting structures.
