Window detail in cloister

Windows are light valves—and craft showcases. Up close, Jerónimos turns into a textbook of tools, textures, and time.


🔧 Tools in Evidence

  • Point and toothed chisels for roughing and texturing.
  • Flat finishing for gleam and edge definition.
  • Subtle rasp or abrasive smoothing on delicate fillets.

Weathering 101

  • Edges round first; check leaf tips and rope ridges.
  • Water routes stain stone; look for dark runs under drip lines.
  • Lichens mark stable moisture; don’t confuse with dirt.

Squint at edges: tool chatter draws micro-textures.

[^weather]: Weathering inks time into stone.
