The buildings file is a very early work-in-progress to show builders and architects how to use our Jallies (stone grills), bas-relief panels, friezes, medallions, and tiles in their projects. We have composed a few pictures in photo workshop just to give a better understanding. Naturally, because the carved stone is made by hammer and chisel, it can be commissioned in almost any size to suit your project. Our sandstones are harder than cement and have lasted the test of time in buildings in India that are well over two thousand years old. No minerals will leach out of our agatised sandstone, unlike the calcium rich canteras. Nor is any sealant necessary for structural Strengthening. We guarantee our stone products for wear or tear from the elements for at least one hundred years. We say this because most people associate sandstone with being a soft material. Well, not all sandstone is soft, and ours are of the hardest varieties and have been used for interior and exterior floor tiles in the America and Europe for many decades. Check out the teak and rainbow sandstone tiles in your local tile store. Our prices are generally less expensive than custom-molded cement products of a similar style. View our instructions page to understand how to install the large variety of forms into stucco, brick, wood or cement walls.
