stone steps
Granite outdoor stairway
Stone steps are stairs made of stone, typically found outdoors leading to buildings, gardens, or between different ground levels.
The phrase emphasizes the material—often suggesting permanence, age, or formality: worn stone steps led up to the cathedral, She sat on the cold stone steps waiting.
Stone steps appear frequently in descriptions of historic architecture, ancient ruins, and formal landscaping.
