Good morning. Your #6 design is perfect for what we are looking for. However, We’ve been searching for over 2 months for the 3D random stack stone you have pictured. Just that, it is very random. Long (some pieces look like almost 20″), and some short. It is perfect. Any suggestions on where we can find this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
