Our mission at Bluestem Quarry
and
Stoneworks is to provide the best quality
building stone and
architectural details
possible in the American prairie style of the
late
masters from the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Our intention is to study what
remains of
these enduring structures and resurrect the
style in its
quality and character. The period represented by these works embodies the
pinnacle of our craft from a generation when quality and craftsmanship
were a point of pride that was passed down from generation to generation
for hundreds of years. The simplicity and elegance contained in this
prairie style architecture is what makes it so special and endearing.
The same pride of craftsmanship
and quality is our goal here at Bluestem.

“When we build let us think that we
build forever. Let it not be for present delight nor present use
alone. Let it be such work as our descendants will thank us for; and
let us think, as we lay stone on stone, that a time is to come when
those stones will be held sacred because our hands have touched them,
and that men will say, as they look upon the labor and wrought
substance of them, “See! This our father did for us.” ~ John Ruskin |
