Soro Stone Art Private Limited

At Soro Stone Art Private Limited, we are located right in the town of Soro at the Uttareswar area. Our post office is also Soro and we are in the Baleshwar district of Orissa, zip code 756045. As the name says, we do stone art. This means our place is often very dusty and we have the sound of cutting and carving going on most of the day. It is hard work and your hands get rough from handling the material. We don't have a glossy showroom. Most of our pieces are just sitting around the yard until they are ready to be sent off. People come by to see what we are working on and the local residents know us well. Stone is a heavy thing to move so we spend a lot of time with lifting equipment and making sure everything is secure. We don't write big speeches about our work. We just take a piece of stone and try to make it look like something. Some days the stone breaks or the tools get dull and we have to start over or spend hours sharpening everything. It’s a slow process and you can’t really rush it if you want it to look right. Baleshwar has a long history of this kind of stuff so we are just continuing that in our own small way. It’s a gritty job but we like it well enough to keep coming back.
