Cobblestone

A cobblestone or cobble is a small to medium-sized roundish stone that was commonly used to pave streets in Europe.
A romantic cobblestone street somewhere in the world.

Word of the Day: Cobblestone/cobble

For some reason, we seem to feel that a cobblestone street is romantic and quaint.

I’m not quite sure why streets paved with roundish stones seems romantic, but it does. Perhaps its the connection to a better, more simple past.

We go to Paris and enjoy walking down the cobblestone streets imagining that we are flying back to a time when Madame Guillotine was hard at work, and modern France was reborn out of the revolution.

By the way, did you know that you can buy a cobble from Paris? If you click here, you can go to the website.

If you want to give a special someone a special present, you can give them an authentic gold-plated cobble from Paris.

You may think it seems a little weird and wonder who would want a gold-plated cobble, but hey, you have to remember, to each their own.
