The ability of master craftsmen to design items of exquisite beauty has been well documented throughout the ages. Fueled by an intensity and passion, names like Faberge, Tiffany, Frank Lloyd Wright, Dale Chihuly, Remington, David Hockney and many others are heralded all over the world for their exceptional designs and artistic ability.

 

It is this same intensity and passion that places Cantera Stone Art at the top of today’s list of designers and artisans. A family owned business, Cantera Stone Art, a division of Canterarte in Guadalajara, México, spans three generations of the highly respected Prieto family and has long been known for their high quality pieces, craftsmanship and service.

 

Choosing the perfect piece of this stone is one of the features that sets Canterarte and Cantera Stone Art apart from other companies. The owners of 15 Cantera mines throughout Mexico, each piece of stone is personally inspected right after it is cut. Much like a sculptor choosing just the right stone for each individual carving, Canterarte prides itself on its expertise of knowing just the right piece to pick for each commissioned job.

 

Cantera Stone Art Managed by Paulina Prieto-Carmody, a third generation of the Prieto family, Paulina grew up learning all the intricacies of Cantera stone. Traveling with her grandparents and parents to their mines and to their craft center, she spent many hours studying the various grades of stone and watching the skilled artisans create the many works of art highly prized in buildings and homes around the world.

Moving from Mexico to the United States, Paulina is proud to continue her association with the family business. She is extremely well versed in all aspects of the business including the initial product design, the quarrying of the Cantera and the manufacturing and hand crafting of the products. Her gallery/showroom will provide prospective clients with the ability to see the majestic beauty of Cantera Stone Art craftsmanship in real life and will allow Paulina to create and market these first class pieces of art on a personal basis. Offering impeccable service, competitive prices, and outstanding traditional, contemporary and custom designs, Cantera Stone Art continues the family tradition of excellence that they have established throughout more than 60 years of quality design, craftsmanship, and service.
