Z Atelier offers Handmade products by the artisans using the art of inlaying technically know as Pietra dura. These include Marble inlay plates, table-tops, tea coasters, jewellery boxes, etc.
The art is, marble inlaid with designs in precious or semi-precious stonework, such as coral, lapis, carnelian, etc. cut into thin slices and neatly bedded in sockets prepared in the marble.
This delicate craftsmanship has been passed down from generation to generation ever since the famous Taj Mahal in Agra, Inda is built, and the traditional secrets have been preserved in the family for centuries.
We bring to you their stories and will also post video stories of products made by these artisans.
By purchasing these products, you will be assisting the artisans' families, especially in the education of their children, as we set aside a portion of our profits for their education the artists are currently struggling due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
