This is the fifth of a series of eight stone mosaic stepping stones destined to be set within the bounds of our thyme garden. Whenever I see a gibbous moon, I can convince myself I can see its dark section. I wanted this piece to show the intrinsic beauty of the stone by using larger tesserae.
The “bright” side of the moon is a composition of Persian red travertine and Aegean silver marble; the dark side uses Teos green marble and Scabas travertine; the border in a copper yellow marble.
