Alta Coasters
Pietra Dura
In the ancient history of artistic expression, Pietra Dura emerges as a radiant gem. Originating from Italy and celebrated as Parchin Kari in the vibrant Indian subcontinent, this revered technique transcends boundaries of mere adornment, transforming into a profound symphony of visual artistry.
Rooted in the opulent courts of Rome and flourishing in the artistic haven of Florence, Pietra Dura is a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship of inlaying highly polished coloured stones, creating intricate narratives or patterns that dance with life itself. Its journey to the Mughal courts of India as Parchin Kari imbued iconic landmarks like the majestic Taj Mahal with a sumptuous grandeur that continues to awe and inspire.
