Frequently Asked Questions

Every Arte Lapidea object is a piece of living geology. We work exclusively with natural stones — primarily marble, travertine and onyx — selected for their visual strength and structural nobility.

Nature never repeats itself. Due to the organic origin of stone, every piece has a unique pattern of veining, porosity and color nuances. No two objects are alike; the piece you receive is a unique work with its own identity that the photograph can only suggest.

Our pieces are not manufactured, they are sculpted. Every object is the result of a handcrafted process where expert hands work the stone with meticulous execution, achieving a perfect balance between the solidity of the material and the delicacy of the design.

Exclusivity is one of our pillars. We offer the possibility of developing special pieces by adjusting dimensions, materials and finishes. We evaluate each request individually to ensure that customization preserves the aesthetic and technical integrity of the work.

Excellence requires time. Production typically ranges between 15 and 30 business days, depending on the complexity of the piece and the selected material. For highly customized projects, timelines are defined privately during the quotation stage.

We offer specialized shipping throughout Mexico. Every piece is protected by a high-security packing protocol designed specifically to safeguard the weight and delicacy of natural stone during transit.

Currently, our logistics are focused on the domestic territory. However, we are evolving our infrastructure to bring Arte Lapidea's presence abroad in the near future, under the same standards of rigor and care.

To maintain the natural patina and shine, we recommend using only a soft cloth lightly dampened with water. It is essential to avoid contact with acidic substances, abrasives or chemicals that can compromise the natural porosity of the material. Stone is eternal, but its surface rewards gentle treatment.

We offer direct and private attention. At the moment, we manage every order personally via electronic transfer or bank deposit. We also offer tax invoicing; we only require your information at the time of formalizing the purchase.
