But, Bra\u010d\u2019s stone is famous worldwide as well. It was used in decorating <strong>vestibule of United Nations building in New York<\/strong>, which makes Bra\u010d\u2019s people together with all other Croats very proud. It was said that parts of the <strong>White House<\/strong> in Washington were built also of Bra\u010d\u2019s stone, but there is no credible evidence for this.

Gornji Humac in Pu\u010di\u0161\u0107a, about 10 km from Supetar, is the cradle of stone-masonry and world-renowned sculptors. After three-year education, young students, among which there are also girls, leave the school, and after another three years of practical training they can take master exam. Then they can open their own stone-masonry workshops where they can freely let their imagination create worthy sculptures and souvenirs for tourist sale. Stone products and souvenirs are made by turning, chiselling, grinding, polishing and engraving. Stonemason School is open for visitors during summer, so everyone interested can see student\u2019s work.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/triciaannemitchell.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/11\/stonemason-school-croatia-klesarska-scc8ckola-puccc8ciscc8cccc81a-braccc8c-island-exterior-building.jpg?w=900&amp;h=600\" alt=\"Image result for \u00c5\u00a1kola pu\u00c4\u008di\u00c5\u00a1\u00c4\u0087a\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you are fed up with dull presents, set out to Bra\u010d, visit Stonemason School or order a souvenir according to your own wishes, like candle holders, ashtrays, vases, clocks or different figurines, and hard-working Bra\u010d\u2019s stone-masons will make everything in their power.
