Handcrafted White Marble Flower Vase with Semi-Precious Stone Inlay & Jali Work | Luxury Pietra Dura Art from Agra
This refined handcrafted white marble flower vase is a distinguished example of Agra’s timeless Pietra Dura (semi-precious stone inlay) craftsmanship, combined with delicate hand-carved jali (lattice) work. Sculpted from premium Makrana white marble, the vase features a slender neck, perforated central body, and a stable pedestal base—creating a graceful balance of elegance and tradition.
The surface is adorned with intricate Mughal-inspired floral motifs, carefully hand-inlaid using natural semi-precious stones. The finely carved jali pattern enhances visual depth while allowing light to interact subtly with the polished marble, elevating the overall aesthetic.
Semi-Precious Stones Used
The detailed inlay work incorporates a harmonious selection of natural stones, including:
-
Lapis Lazuli: Deep blue accents that add royal elegance
-
Turquoise: Soft blue tones for contrast and visual balance
-
Malachite: Rich green hues used in leaves and vines
-
Carnelian: Warm orange and red highlights enhancing floral motifs
-
Mother of Pearl: Subtle iridescence that adds refined detailing
Each stone is precision-cut and hand-set flush into the marble surface, followed by a meticulous hand polish to achieve a smooth, seamless, and durable finish.
