History - The glamorous delight of the Taj Mahal (built by Shahjahan in the seventeenth century in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal) is captured in the marble craft of India. In this art, also known as ''Pietra Dura'' or ''Parchin Kari'', beautiful floral and geometric patterns are created using natural colored semi-precious stones from around the world like garnet, jade, pearls, corals, lapis lazuli, jasper, malachite, etc. Then these stones are inlaid in Indian marble of various hues (sourced from the same place, Makrana, as used in the Taj Mahal) to create designs of unsurpassed elegance.
