Answer»

Correct option is (a) Furrowed finish

To EXPLAIN I would say: In Furrowed finish, a margin of about 20 mm width, is sunk on all the edges of the stone and the central position is made to project about 15 mm. A number of VERTICAL or horizontal grooves about 10 mm wide are FORMED in this projected position. This finish is generally ADOPTED to make the quoins prominent.
