"We live in an older home, built in 1924. On the front masonry porch stand three unique stone planters, which we believe are original to the house.

"One summer, there was a bad storm in northern Illinois & the wind tore off a very large tree branch. The branch took off part of our chimney, and also destroyed one of the three stone planters on the front porch. Our family has lived at the property since 1964, and we were quite saddened by the loss. The insurance adjustor recommended we buy three new planters. What other choice was there? We’d never find a match.

"I did some Googling and ran across the Tri-Stone web site. I emailed Tim on the off-chance something could be done. He said he could help us, and proceeded to explain some options. We could bring up the broken planter pieces & see about a repair. Or, we could bring up one of the original intact planters and have a new one cast, and then antiqued to match the others.

"I didn’t even know this was possible! We couldn’t be more pleased with the result. You’d have to get close and scrutinize the planters to know which two are the originals and which one is newly cast. Amazing!"--Michelle C.
