The quarry

Miriyan village, Chincholi taluk.

Thirty years working the same limestone horizon, supplying across India. The polishing yard sits beside the face, so a slab is cut, honed, graded and crated without leaving the family operation.

Quarry working face at Miriyan with flat horizontal limestone beds being lifted as large thin sheets
The working face. Beds lift as large thin sheets, which is why the stone cuts to 1200 × 600 mm at 20 mm without resin backing.
Polishing line at the yard with limestone tiles passing under water spray
The polishing line. Honing, brushing and polishing all run here, so finish changes do not add a third-party handling step.
Stacked bundles of calibrated grey and cream limestone tiles in the yard
Graded and stacked by tonal band before crating. Around 3,200 m² of workable sheet a week across the four colours.

Samples

Judge it wet, in your own light.

Sample boxes carry 150 × 150 mm pieces of each stone in each available finish, with a water bottle, because the wet colour is the decision most buyers get wrong from a photograph. Free to trade addresses, dispatched within three working days.
