Safe Delivery of Hand-Carved Stone Art
Shipping heavy stone art requires more than just a box. We build custom wooden crates for every masterpiece to ensure your fountain or statue arrives at your doorstep in perfect condition.
This is how I ensure your masterpiece arrives safely. Each piece is packed in a sturdy wooden crate with clear handling instructions. These shipments were dispatched on September 11, 2025.

About Packed with Care: Ready for Your Home
When you order a heavy granite fountain or marble statue, we go beyond standard packing. We build a custom wooden crate for every piece, wrap the stone in specialized foam, and treat surfaces with a protective water-repellent coating before dispatch. We use heavy-duty forklifts to secure your order, ensuring that the piece you select from our gallery is exactly what you receive.
Shipping stone might sound like a major logistical challenge, but we have refined our dispatch process to remove that stress. Since we handle pieces ranging from 15kg tabletops to 900kg luxury waterfalls, our packaging protocols are non-negotiable.
How we pack your masterpiece
- Custom Wooden Crating: We build export-standard crates that fit the exact dimensions of your statue or fountain, ensuring zero movement during transit.
- Shock Absorption: Every piece is wrapped in multi-layered foam and protective bubble wrap to guard against impact.
- Weather Sealing: Before dispatch, we apply a professional water-repellent coating to marble and granite surfaces, keeping the stone pristine regardless of travel conditions.
- Clear Handling Instructions: We label every crate with specific instructions, including 'This Side Up' and 'Fragile' warnings, ensuring our logistics partners treat your shipment with the care it deserves.
Will I need a plumber or installer?
Most of our pieces, including large granite waterfalls, are self-contained. You simply need a flat surface for placement. We avoid complex civil work, so there is no masonry involved. When your crate arrives, you unpack, position the piece, fill it with water, and plug it in. We manage the heavy lifting until it reaches your door, leaving you to simply enjoy the sound of the flowing water.
