ABSTRACT:
A composite module (14) is formed by a specially constructed mold (65) and division plate (80) to form plural splitting planes (28, 31, 33, 51, 54, 56) in the composite module which is thereafter split by a series of knives (114-116, 121-123, 126, 127) aligned with such predefined splitting planes to split the module into plural blocks (12, 13) each having plural irregular decorative surface areas (25, 26, 27; 48, 49, 50) having different widths (35, 37, 39; 58, 60, 62) and depths (30, 32, 34; 52, 55, 57). Such split-type decorative areas within a course (131) are aligned out of vertical alignment with decorative areas of other blocks in adjacent courses (130, 132) to form a decorative wall (134).
