STONE CUTTING
Stone carving – creates a decorative bas-relief on the stone surface.
Decorative bas-reliefs, which decorate the stone facades of buildings, windows, door jambs, give a special classical accent. AP LABRADOR company can create custom-made bas-reliefs on stone surfaces and deliver to any European country.
A bas-relief is a drawing cut on a stone surface in 2D format - an image of an animal or a person, it can be any decorative element, for example, informative wall/door plaques or a commemorative plaque according to the wishes of the customer. The company AP LABRADOR has 30 years of experience in cutting various decorative decorations on stone surfaces. At one time, the decorations were cut by hand. Now the company uses a modern CNC stone cutting machine for stone cutting - therefore, decorative bas-reliefs on stone can be cut very precisely and uniformly.
Companies perform bas-relief cutting on mass-produced stone elements to order, and bas-reliefs can also be cut on unique stone elements, for example, on a memorial plaque. Bas-relief carving is beneficial for customers in European countries, such as Scandinavia, Italy, Germany. In these countries, bas-reliefs on stone surfaces are a popular decorative element, while the cost of their creation in Latvia is relatively cheaper.
Bas-reliefs can be cut on any stone surface - in Northern European countries, including Latvia, stone cutting is more often done on travertine, granite, etc. Bas-reliefs can also be cut on marble. This stone is relatively softer, so stone cutting will be faster and more cost-effective.
Stone carving - what do I need to carve a bas-relief?
To create a bas-relief on a stone surface, the customer usually submits a project developed in a 2D program in "OBJ" or "STL" format. The AP LABRADOR company usually makes sure that the bas-relief on the stone surface will be exactly as expected when developing according to the project submitted by the customer, and informs the customer about nuances or necessary changes.
The sketch and project of the future bas-relief can also be developed at AP LABRADOR. However, then the customer must expect additional costs, time for coordination, etc
Bas-reliefs can be cut on the customer's stone, as well as the AP LABRADOR company can provide stone material - the required type, size, thickness. The stone is delivered to order and it should be expected that delivery may take time, sometimes even several months.
