I believe the answer is:

sculpt

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cut from stone in a way' is the definition.
'sculpt' can be an answer for 'cut' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the 'from stone in a way' bit.

I don't understand the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sculpt that I've seen before include "Carve a shape" , "Carve (into artistic form)" , "Create by shaping a material" , "Shape material into a work of art" , "Carve a statue" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times.
