The two stone tablets contained the Ten Commandments, given to Moses by God. The Ten Commandments as listed in the New International Version of The Bible are:

1. You shall have no other gods before Me.

2. You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.

3.You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.

4.Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.

5.Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you.

6.You shall not murder.

7.You shall not commit adultery.

8.You shall not steal.

9.You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.

10.You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.

You are conflating two different things. 1) The two stone tablets of the Ten Commandments were given by God to the Israelites (Exodus 31:18) and kept in the Ark (Exodus ch.25), and their location is no longer known.2) Synagogues sometimes display portrayals of the Two Tablets, but this is not a requirement, and many synagogues do not have this symbolic replica. Those that do, may make them out of wood or any other material. Actual stone replicas are not common.
