A buyer's guide to sourcing marble inlay decor from India
Practical detail for importers — what to check on quality, how the product varies, and the compliance and documentation that applies in export markets.
What to inspect before shipment
Agra's pietra dura inlay tradition, rooted in Makrana marble, defines this category. Inspect the marble's whiteness and freedom from cracks, the precision and flushness of the inlaid semi-precious stones, polish quality, and symmetry of the design. Tap-test for hidden cracks and confirm robust packing, as marble is heavy and fragile in transit.
Variants and customization
Covers table tops, coasters, boxes, plates and decorative panels with floral and geometric inlay in marble and, at lower price points, alabaster or resin-bonded substitutes. Customization covers size, design, stone palette and base/stand. Confirm genuine Makrana marble versus substitute stone, as it materially affects value and weight.
Compliance and export documentation
Stone articles under HS 6802 use standard export documentation. The main practical issues are accurate material declaration (genuine marble versus engineered/resin), robust crating to survive ocean freight, and weight-based freight planning. Provide material certificates where authenticity is part of the offer.
