A works, not a
trading office.
Raghav Natural Stones manufactures memorials, monuments and cut-to-size stone in the Krishnagiri belt of Tamil Nadu and ships them to importers, dealers and cemeteries in thirty-five countries. Blocks are chosen at the quarry face, cut and finished under one roof, and loaded into the container at the same address.
The stone travels once
before it reaches you.
India's memorial-grade stone does not come from one place. The blacks come out of Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, the browns and reds from Telangana and Rajasthan, the marbles and sandstones from the north-west. Most exporters buy those stones already cut, from whoever has them.
We buy blocks — selected at the quarry face for shade and grain, marked for the order, and hauled to Krishnagiri. From that point the block does not leave our hands until it is crated.
Four things we would rather you heard from us than found out later.
-
01
We are a works, not a trading house.
Sawing, finishing, carving, inspection and crating all happen at No. 135 Thyagasanapalli Road. We do not buy a finished monument from someone else and put our crate around it — which mainly matters on the day something comes out wrong, because there is one address to answer for it.
-
02
We do not sell to your customers.
No showroom in your city, no consumer brand, no direct sales to families. The work leaves here in neutral or private-label packing, so the only name a cemetery ever sees on the job is yours.
-
03
Nothing is cut before you sign the drawing.
Your enquiry comes back as a production drawing with sizes, finishes and edges marked, and a physical sample for shade. Once you sign it, that drawing is frozen — and it is the same sheet we cut from when you re-order two years later.
-
04
We are usually not the cheapest quotation you will get.
Selecting blocks at the quarry face, holding a batch to one block for shade, and measuring every piece against the drawing all cost something. What they buy you is a container nobody argues about after it lands.
Come and see the yard,
or send a drawing first.
