Materials We Use

  • Granite: Granite is a coarse-grained igneous rock composed mainly of quartz, feldspar, and mica. It is formed from the slow crystallization of magma beneath the Earth's surface. Granite is known for its durability, strength, and resistance to weathering, making it a popular choice for monuments, and decorative stone.
  • Example granite colours:
  • Marble: Marble is a metamorphic rock primarily composed of recrystallized carbonate minerals, usually calcite or dolomite. It is renowned for its fine grain, smooth texture, and aesthetic appeal, making it a preferred material for monumental masonry. Marble's ability to achieve a high polish and its availability in various colors and patterns enhance its suitability for creating statues, monuments, and memorials. While marble is durable and weather-resistant, it is softer than granite, making it easier to carve but more susceptible to acid rain and environmental wear over time.
  • Example marble colours:
  • Sandstone: Sandstone is a sedimentary rock composed mainly of sand-sized mineral particles or rock fragments, primarily quartz and feldspar. It is valued in monumental masonry for its durability, workability, and natural beauty. Sandstone can be easily carved into intricate designs, making it suitable for statues, memorials, and architectural details. Its range of colors, from earthy browns to reds and yellows, adds to its aesthetic appeal. However, sandstone is porous, which makes it more susceptible to weathering and erosion compared to harder stones like granite or marble. Proper maintenance and sealing can enhance its longevity in outdoor settings.
