It took a period of 22 years and 22000 artisans to build the Taj Mahal. Clearly it makes us wonder why a building simply a few hundred feet high took so long. Only a closer view reveals the reason and its perfection. When in our fast times we see huge structures of hundreds of stories raised in a few years like the Burj-al-Khalifa in Dubai (nearly a kilometer high and built in simply 5 years), it becomes necessary to consider why 22,000 men worked for 22 years on this little tomb.

We begin to sense the difference between industry and art and perhaps more importantly, we sense the ultimate lesson it offers: beauty, and that which lasts, is based on love.

Such has been the history of Marble Handicrafts Agra. It has been the preserver of the art of Parchinkari since decades. The art which adorns one of the wonders of the world, the shining example of Indian architecture at its pinnacle: The Taj Mahal. It was introduced by the Great Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan in the 17th century. It involves the inlay of rare and beautiful semi-precious stones on dazzling white marble from Makrana, a city in Rajasthan, India.

This art is one of the lesser known arts which make it all the more surprising and exciting for people from all corners of the world. And here I proudly introduce you to it.

We have thousand of articles and a few hundred masterpieces for the connoisseurs of art, hundreds of families and artisans who depend on Parchinkari for their livelihood have been linked to us for years and we take pride in supporting them and in keeping this art alive.

We have live and exclusive demonstration of Parchinkari by most skilled artisans on our premises. Parchinkari is an art passed down from generation to generation; most of the artisan has been handed down this art through forefathers who learned these arts from craftsmen of the Mughal era.

We take are product quality very seriously and procure the best quality marble from the city of Makrana in Rajasthan, India. The marble for the Taj Mahal was obtained from quarries in Makrana and we use the same quality marble. Genuine quality, rare and beautiful semi-precious stone go through a tough process of selection and only the best are put to see.

We are the leading manufacturer, exporter and specialist in constructional marble inlay in Agra. The trust we have maintained with our clients that we have had guests visit our premises over again. “Atithi Devo Bhava” is a popular saying in India which means “Guest is God” and we believe in the same, delivering to our guest the best possible experience.
