About AGES ART

A vertically integrated natural stone company — quarry, factory, workshop and design under one roof.

Overview

AGES ART works the whole chain: extraction at the quarry, processing and finishing in the factory, carving and inlay in the workshop, and design at the front of all of it. The tagline is literal — from earth to art, from quarry to architecture.

Integration is not a marketing position, it is a quality mechanism. When the same company selects the block and carves the finished piece, colour matching, vein direction and soundness are decided once, at the start, instead of being argued about between three suppliers at the end.

Our head office is in Delhi and our manufacturing is in Rajasthan, in the stone belt that has supplied Indian architecture for centuries. The craft traditions we work in — hand carving, jali, Pietra Dura inlay — come from the same region.
