Coade stone or Lithodipyra (Ancient Greek "stone fired twice") was
stoneware that was often described as an artificial stone in the late 18th and
early 19th centuries. It was used for moulding neoclassical statues,
architectural decorations and garden ornaments of the highest quality that
remain virtually weatherproof today.
Coade stone features were
produced by appointment to George III and the Prince Regent for St George's
Chapel, Windsor; The Royal Pavilion, Brighton; Carlton House, London; the Royal
Naval College, Greenwich; and refurbishment of Buckingham Palace in the
1820s.
