        That could also be mache. Otherwise my idea is that they discovered this during basement excavation and decided it was too expensive/difficult to move

          It’s likely you won’t find a rock this big when digging a basement, but as we can see here, it’s not something you can safely take for granite.

      It’s likely an art project. Paper mache sort of thing.

      If I had to guess.

        If you look at the floor, you can see that the house was built around the rock. My bet is that they found the rock while digging out the basement. Options were $15,000+ to remove it, or $0 to just dig around it.

          It looks like it’s sitting in top of dirt on top of the tile. The wall to the right looks like it could be moveable

      It’s an AI image. There’s a lot of impossible patterns and geometry here. Look at the floor under the rock and the pattern on the bedsheets lol. Also the ceiling is curving and the rock would be clipping into the wall from this perspective.
