Alice, I'd try the two part epoxy for that purpose. I've glued several pieces to stone, but have also used a carbide drill bit to drill into the rock, and a corresponding hole into the carving. A little epoxy on both ends of a metal (Iuse brass) rod ans some on the surfaces between the base and carving, and they are PERMANENTLY stuck!
