Stones for Botad
Finished at the factory
The factory that cuts the stone Botad buys
Most marble sold in Botad arrives as finished slabs through dealers who bought them from an importer, who bought them from a cutter. Flora Marble buys the blocks, direct from the quarries with no middlemen, and cuts, resin-treats and polishes them itself at its own factory at Athal, Silvassa, as it has since 2002.
For a buyer in Botad that means 454 km to the slab sheds, about 9 hours by road, to see the whole lot in daylight with the people who will finish it. Most buyers from this far send the drawings and the stone they have in mind; we quote against them and show the numbered slabs we propose before anything is cut.
Botad: homes and shops
Botad and the villages of Botad district build bungalows, farmhouses, temples and shops in stone, usually one house at a time.
For floors, Botad mostly asks for a beige marble, Botticino, Ottoman or Spanish Cream, in one lot across the whole house. For the walls that matter, the living room, the island, the temple room, it asks for an Italian white. Outside and in the kitchen, granite in a leathered or polished finish does the hard work.
