Our Heritage

Lapis Italian team and stone expertise

WHO WE
ARE

At Lapis Italian Dubai, we bring the elegance of authentic Italian stone to the UAE and MENA region through premium marble, Luserna stone, travertine, and natural stone solutions. Combining Italian craftsmanship with modern precision, we work closely with architects, designers, and developers to deliver timeless materials that elevate contemporary spaces.

SINCE 1990

Specialized in Luserna stone for over 30 years

For centuries, Luserna stone has been used in civil construction for a variety of purposes. Its beauty was even recognized by Antonelli, who chose it for his most iconic building, the Mole Antonelliana.

Although its use has continued over time, it is especially in recent years that its beauty and remarkable versatility have been rediscovered. Today, Luserna stone is also featured in design projects and distinctly modern settings, paired with wood, terracotta, marble, and other materials.

THE SOURCE

Balma Oro: where the mountains meet mastery

The BALMA ORO quarry of ITALPIETRE is located in the Bagnolo Piemonte basin, nestled between the mountains of Val Pellice and Valle Po, just a few kilometers from Turin. This is where our quarry workers extract the blocks using modern, cutting-edge technologies that keep pace with market demands.

Still, technology would mean nothing without the skill and craftsmanship of ITALPIETRE's specialized workers, who raise the product quality to the highest level.

HUMAN TOUCH

Craftsmanship that transcends technology

The coordinated work between the quarry and the workshop allows ITALPIETRE to guarantee top-quality execution, fully meeting the client's needs. A system built on deep industry knowledge and cutting-edge technologies that enabled the company to be the first in its sector to receive the Artisan Excellence mark awarded by the Piedmont Region.

Our master stonecutters have inherited centuries-old techniques, yet they embrace digital precision — from waterjet cutting to CNC sculpting — to create pieces that are both timeless and contemporary.
