stones have traditionally been used as excellent building
materials. Since time immemorial, architecture has relied
mainly on stones. Innumerable Temples, Forts and Palaces
of ancient civilization have been carved out of stones.
All major archeological excavations have revealed exquisitely
carved statuettes and carvings in stone.
India has a rich tradition of stone
sculpture, remnants of which are dotted all over the
country in the form of cave carvings, temples, palaces
and forts. The rich tradition of the craftsmanship has
been carried forward through generations to the present
day. Over centuries, the production techniques have
hardly changed. Even today, production is done using
simplest of tools coupled with expertise, patience and
perseverance. These artisans create works of splendour,
which have few parallels anywhere in the world. Our
artisans produce a blend of the modern with ancient
and are capable of creating music in stone.
No machine carving can match the dexterity
of a human touch. The hand-carved stone possesses simple
beauty and a "life" that cannot be replicated
by any other material. Though there is a variety of
low-priced alternative machine carved & cast products
available in the market, yet, the exclusive handcrafted
products are still in great demand. The synthetic products
cannot duplicate the sheer elegance and character of
the handcrafted products.
