STONES

At Movsisyan Ltd. we work with the best natural stones both from Armenia and all over the world. Natural stone is elegant, durable and it’s lasting beauty and earthy color variations mean that each stone and product is unique.

Mass-produced, manufactured stone products are made with stone fragments held together by an epoxy or resin and colored with pigments. Manufactured stones may look and feel like natural stone but natural stone is the premier choice due to its quality, durability and long-lasting beauty.

We offer a rich variety of stones for any type of work. Whether it is travertine for external cladding, or marble for interior columns, or an obsidian vase as a unique gift – our specialists will help you make the right choice.

In addition to the stones that we carry in-stock, we also offer many other types of stones which can be specially ordered. This enables us to deliver stones to you from quarries from around the globe.
