Have a look at some pictures. Look at the ever earthy basalt black surface.
These cobbles have machine-cut edges.
Now check rectangular pieces.
Just look at the surface on all sides. It’s black but it isn’t black. Isn’t it that way?
Can you feel the aroma emanating out of these cobbles on a rainy day? Or on an evening, sitting on a water sprinkled-cobble floor sipping your favorite beverage…
Will your project have space for the ever-beautiful black basalt?

This is from a recent project… It’s hard to take beautiful pictures generally, it’s harder to capture the architecture of closed spaces and then it’s yet harder to capture flooring in closed spaces! This is a beautiful laying of cobbles and a beautiful picture too. Credit to the karigars and credit to the person who clicked it like this.
Do you have a project where you would like to lay multi-color cobbles like these?

Adding to the collection of Cobblestone Patterns showcased on this website.
Work-in-progress pictures reveal quite a bit about the designing and laying process, no?
Are you doing a landscaping project? Are you looking for Indian natural cobbles in different colors and combinations? Are you laying cobbles in the interesting patterns?

In Yellow/Brown Kota Stone, a lovely idea for Garden Steps or for your outdoors.
While this is done in Yellow/Brown Kota Stone, this can be done in any stone in any surface finish. Sandstone, Granite, Marble, whatever fits your project and the aesthetics of your project.
If you take an aerial shot using a drone, these would look like polka dots!
What does your project demand? Share with us and we will help you with some amazing options in Indian Natural Stone.

Some glimpses of Nimbahera stone outdoors. This is Taj Sarsa Hotel in Udaipur.
Credit to the architect and the artisans who accomplished this. May have been done long back. But that’s the thing about using Indian natural stone. It lends a beauty nothing can really match.
I find this rush to install glossy surfaces indoors and outdoors quite pukish at times. Vitrified tiles to me feel like ‘cheap glamour and gloss’.
How are you shaping your projects? Do you have the expanse and do you have a desire to make a long-lasting beautiful place?

My visits to Rajasthan were filled with such sights, such walls erected around schools and government offices and buildings. It’s easy to spot them even now whenever you visit places in Rajasthan and your eyes are open for architectural discoveries.
Pardon the quality of the picture above but you get the idea, I hope.
These walls can stand forever if the pieces of stone are bound well. They barely need any upkeep or maintenance efforts. And lend the project such a character.
The thing about showing such walls is that you need to photograph them from a fair distance, which is often not possible. They feel amazing in actual anyway.
Here’s what we can offer in case you desire to create a wall like that.
What kind of walls have you planned for your project? Do not let them be painted and bland. There are better ways to erect walls.

Showing 2 patterns in Black and White cobblestone.
These are rectangular cobbles finished with shot-blasting. Edges are well-defined. And the surface is finished to a consistent level.
Here’s the second pattern in contrast to the above one.
Yessss, creating Chinese Lattice with cobblestone is doable. And doesn’t that look amazing! The first one is linear long curves. The second one is angular and intricate.
Does your project have the space, the imagination and the hands to for such beautiful patterns?

There is this strange desire among house owners who are renovating their houses or building houses anew, to make their houses look ‘new’.
‘New’ is so mercurial, temporal, elusive, that even while building the ‘new’, the ‘new’ may stop feeling ‘new’. Or right after the day of ‘house warming’, the newness may evaporate like water in desert.
Is it this desire for ‘new new new’ that makes folks select mirror-finished surface for their indoor flooring, irrespective of the material: granite, marble or vitrified tiles?
Look at this floor for example:
You would have guessed that this is granite with grains in shades of brown. If you look carefully, you might also see that it is reflective. And yet it is not mirror-finished surface. No, it is not matte surely.
Think about this.
Do you want a house that looks ‘new’, or do you want a house that feels neat and clean and cozy?
Mirror-finished surfaces often look new but also non-cozy. Beautiful perhaps but quite sterile.
The picture above shows granite flooring with a rather alluring surface finish. To my senses, ideal for indoor flooring where folks are looking for long-term beauty and warmth and a certain comfort and coziness. Mind you, this finish and feeling can’t be replicated using vitrified tiles. Perhaps not even with natural marble. Granite suits the best.
Would you try this finish for indoor flooring for your project?

These aren’t black, in case that’s how the pic shows to your eyes.
These are the classic ever-pleasing colors of Kota Stone cobbles. Machine-cut edges. And very good quality natural-feeling surface finish done at K. K. Stones Ahmedabad.
Would be interesting to see when the work gets over.
Do you have a project and an expanse that would look great with such cobbles? Do let us know.

It feels like small sized stone bring an endless stimulation. An perennial trigger to imagine things.
Look at this pattern.
Work in progress for a driveway. Colors are sorted but mingling all the same. Looking at the pattern and colors in this pic, the feeling is one of enchanting depth.
Now look at another pattern.
There are 4 colors and the cobbles are well-sorted based on the colors. The patterns in paving make interesting use alternating colors. Pic of work in progress, it would be interesting to see how it looks at the end.
Fascinating! How are you shaping your project? Would cobble patterns make your project interesting?

Natural Stone, in its default shape and condition, is a product of ‘creativity’. We do certain things to make it suitable for our purposes like landscaping, indoor flooring, paving et al. But this is something else.l, have a look.
Black Kadappah Stone in a floral form, modular pattern cutting for outdoor or semi-outdoor flooring. Impressive? We like it.
When are we going to agree on one sacred for Kadappah? Earlier it used to be Cudappah and on the picture it is Kadapa! All are the same, in case you write in for inquiry.
Have a look at another picture below.
An applied form of the Kadappah floral form. As is evident it is a sort semi-outdoor sort of space.
Have an interesting project coming up? Can you imagine your space petalled with Kadappah Stone Flowers?

Dear Landscaper, once you floor your space like this, do you think there’s a chance folks visiting and walking through such spaces will ever get bored?
You place any object, any furniture, any insane color and this floor will make everything feel in place. No joke!
Enduring Black Beauty, if you can call it that! 🙂
Got a project going where you have space for such flooring?

As is evident this is outdoor flooring. Looks fabulous? What do you think?
I feel such randomly shaped Kota Stone would be stunning indoors as well. The space between the stone pieces can be much much finer. And the floor can polished glossy like mirror.
For a moment, looking at this picture, it felt like Giraffe skin 😀.
Do you think your project has space for such work? What is the color palette you’ve imagined for your project?

Have a look at the pattern created out of some contrasting natural stone cobbles.
If there is a good expanse of land for landscaping and paving in your project you can create something absolutely and almost, I can say, eternally beautiful! What do you think?

Have you experienced machine-cut cobbles? Not just while laying but while walking on them, especially walking barefoot?
These Soffedge Cobbles are an upgraded version, you can say. Demand a special process to assume these soft edges. They’ve got a look, no? And you can experience the softness of the edges while walking on them too.

Udaipur is the destination for ‘destination wedding’, right?
This picture was clicked last year. A resort project in progress. By now, it would all be over and done I guess.
You can see the laying of multi-color machine-cut cobbles with surface dimension of 5.5″ * 5.5″. Looks pretty even in the unfinished look.
Imagine vitrified tiles used in a city like Udaipur that has such rich architectural heritage. Blasphemy! And yet they are doing it all the over the place, the silly straight-lined aluminium panelled hotels.
At places, you see windows made with the classic royal palace-like window-frames, and then floored with vitrified tiles. Pukish when you realise the kind of minds at work.
Horror!
Do you have a project with a good expanse?

Look at these blocks of Natural Stone. Almost look like monuments, no? Some relics. And yes, technically they are relics.
Every project that makes space for such forms and sizes of Natural Stone automatically offers a sense of the eternal. You can keep gazing and you get a sense of the depth of time and nature.
Stupid vitrified tiles can’t offer and can’t match any of this, try as much as possible.
For your project, we can contribute with natural stone.

Have a look at these wall-cladding modular panels created with irregular hexagons and pentagons. They look magical just lying on the floor like this, no?

For the walls, etching and engraving with CNC machine on stone often looks garish. No it isn’t about lack of intricacy or details. It is just that it is machined and that machined repetition is a bit discomforting.
It feels like on most occasions we are overdoing things just because we have found a easy way of machining all the stone-art that was done by hand.
So what is this? It is not for walls. It is for the floors.
The immediate thought that strikes me is a comparison with the printed horrible-feeling vitrified tiles. This looks and feels far richer.
That said, apart from its visual attractiveness, I can almost sense that it would be quite pleasing to the touch of the soles of the feet. Can you sense that? How would it feel to you?
Got a project where we can contribute?

For vitrified tiles (factory created surface element, to put in another way) one can copy natural surface patterns in all sorts of sizes: 2-ft by 2-ft, 4-ft by 2-ft and larger too now. When we say ‘copy’, it is not ‘copying’ like lab-diamonds. It is ‘copying’ only for the purpose of ‘printing’ like one prints on paper or fabric or any other surface. Quite obviously they can’t actually compose natural stone. They can’t make cobbles. THEY CAN’T MAKE NATURE.
They can’t make patterns like these either. You can’t make such patterns and lay vitrified tiles like these. There are no vitrified cobbles. You can’t print cobbles. You can’t print cobble-patterns. Vitrified can’t have the endurance of cobbles either.
Of course, you can use machine-made cement pavers. And that’s another story. Some other day.
Do you have a project where cobbles can play a role, can lend some natural beauty?
We can deliver cobbles to all the cities of Gujarat: Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar, Mehsana, Jamnagar, Vadodara, Nadiad, Anand, Vallabh Vidyanagar, Amreli, etc.

The thing is your garden needs to have some size otherwise these boulders and blocks of stone would not leave any garden space for you to enjoy. But if your garden has a decent size then stone in this shape and size will enhance the experience multi-fold for God only knows what length of time!
In the pic above what you see is multi-hued lime stone with beautiful concentric pattern.
These boulders can be picked and placed exactly as you see in the pictures. No shaping or reshaping or finishing required.
If your garden is a decent size, these would surely it a character. Do you have a certain vision for garden-scaping?

Stone for landscaping can be loaded and transported even during rains.
We give strange names on occasions. Such that the most natural is called CRAZY.
Look at this outdoor flooring. Since this brown stone doesn’t have regular four corners and size of machine-cut slabs, this is called Crazy Brown. And yet this is much closer to nature, and will feel so much more attractive and ‘earthy’ as time passes by.
Actually, looking at this kind of flooring one might say that the indoor flooring done using vitrified tiles is the most crazy thing we do! What is your sense?

Multi-color cobbles… Work-in-progress at a paving/landscaping project.
If you aren’t looking for such almost-regular cobbles, you can pave with Tumbled Stone. One can say, Tumbled Stone is a different and better-feeling form of flagstone. Great for outdoor paving and landscaping. Have a look.
Do you have a project where you see the potential for us to contribute?
