I thought it was a vintage jacket that needed a good clean and the fact that the background was made of stones hence the “stone washing”.

I thought that initially, but is it a new colour or treatment?

@Hh121 , would this be heavy enough??

Aero said it's 20 kg.

Aero August heavy weight. Starting to develop a lovely patina but still a little stiff. Coming in around 20kg.

This was carved for us by a very talented customer from a lump of Northumberland Sandstone.

In that exact shade it almost looksl ike a sand sculpture! I rather like it. Would be interesting to see a 'before' photo side by side.

It's sand stone so will resemble sand.
Here is pre powerwash, it wasn't really dirty, a bit muddy and a few bird droppings, have yet to find the right location for it. It has been outside for about a year and a half, I will try find a photo from when new.

Ha! I feel so daft!

I've not had tiem to go over to social media and check the video out, so I've only seen Denny's photo here; in all honesty, I misread the post last night and thought it was a jacket that had been pressure treated somehow to take the top surface off and give it this effect..... ha.

It's a fantastic piece of carving; really has to look of a new Aero when they're at the 'stand up on their own' stage. Fantastic display piece outside the factory!

These carvings are getting so true to life!

That is quite the Sand-Stone jacket there! May be a bit lacking in warmth during winter months, but will be plenty warm taking in the sun in the summer. Nice post and great background for it.
