Material Story

Dholpur Pink Sandstone is appreciated for its gentle pink tones and understated warmth. Unlike deeper red sandstones, its softer colour palette brings a sense of calmness and refinement to architecture.

The stone has a naturally even grain structure and regular bedding, making it suitable for both architectural applications and customised stone elements. Its subtle character allows it to complement traditional Indian architecture as well as contemporary spaces.

For Ishatva, Dholpur Pink is particularly suited to spaces that require warmth without visual heaviness.

Colour & Natural Variation

The colour palette ranges from soft blush pink through dusty rose to warm salmon and subtle reddish-pink. Natural tonal movement may occur from one piece to another. Some areas may appear lighter and more muted, while others may carry slightly deeper pink or reddish tones.
