The face of wallstone is the side of the stone. A good piece of flat wallstone has a flat surface on the top and bottom, and (in the case of "flats") a perpendicular angle from the side to the top.
Round wallstone is a little different because it can sometimes be similar to stacking bowling balls. A good piece of round wallstone would be a bowling ball that got melted flat on the top and the bottom.

How to Build a Stonewall
by: David Croteau
Flat wallstone is made from New England fieldstone.
A good piece of flat wallstone has a flat top and bottom to make it easy for staking. The face of wallstone is on the side of the stone.
Wallstone is categorized by heights:
1-4 inches = Thin
3-6 inches = Regular
5-10 inches = Large
3-18 inches = Mixed
We put together a handy wall stone materials calculator to convert tons to cubic volume.
Often times our "veneer" line of siding is a more cost effective and more aesthetically material for wall construction, particularly one sided retaining walls. Learn more about thin and building veneer.
