Our craftsmen follow and develop the traditions of the Ural
art of stonecutting. They create unique articles of high quality out of
gems and semiprecious stones: complicated genre compositions with figures
of persons and animals, flower out of gems and semiprecious stones in
Faberge's style, pictures in the technique of the "Florentine mosaic".
The stonecutting workshop uses various kinds of
semiprecious stones in its production: jasper (different tones of brown red
colour, green and blackish - blue), malachite, rhodonite, charoite, nephrite,
agate, "perelivt" - agate, carnelian, cachalong, avanturine, chrisoprase,
rocky crystal, icy quarts, morion, obsidian, graphic granite (jewdish stone),
serpentine, marble and so on. You'll see the beauty
of the Ural gems and articles out of them. You'll learn about some professional
secrets and reasons for making unique articles. You'll also learn about
the historical roots of this cultural phenomenon in the Urals.
