A day in the stone.
Days, evenings and celebrations at the studio in Windhoek and the marble quarry at Karibib, for companies, families and guests. Each one is arranged privately, around the people who come.
Plan an experience
The Quarry Day.
One day, from the ground to the form. The team follows the stone from the quarry at Karibib, about two hours from Windhoek, to the studio where it is carved, and leaves with something of its own.
Visits to the quarry are arranged with the quarry and follow its safety rules. Transport, meals and timings are set with each company.
Into the Erongo
The team leaves Windhoek early for Karibib, where Namibian marble has lain in the earth for more than five hundred million years.
Where the stone is born
A walk along the quarry face with the people who work it. The team sees how a block is chosen and cut, and each person picks a piece of raw marble to take home.
Lunch on the road home
A long table on the way back to Windhoek, with time to talk about what the team has seen.
At the studio
An introduction from the master, then the chisels. Each person shapes a small form from their own stone, or the team works one block together, which the sculptors then complete as a piece for the company.
Among the sculptures
A sundowner in the studio. The team may choose a finished work for its offices, with its certificate.
The Studio Day
The afternoon of the Quarry Day on its own: a half or full day at the studio for a team, without the journey to Karibib.
EnquireThe Studio Evening
For clients, partners and boards: an evening among the sculptures, a demonstration by the sculptors, and dinner. A work can be presented to a guest of honour.
EnquirePrivate Celebrations
Milestone birthdays, anniversaries and engagements. An evening in the studio for family and friends, where guests try the chisel, or a commissioned work is unveiled as the gift.
EnquireThe First Stroke
For weddings, new ventures and new chapters. Every guest makes one stroke in a single block, and the sculptors finish it into a keepsake that carries everyone's mark.
EnquireDelegations & Visiting Guests
For trade and diplomatic delegations and visiting partners: a curated studio visit, the quarry if time allows, and a presentation gift in Namibian marble.
EnquireThe Earth To Light Workshop
For those who want more than a day: eight weeks, one block each, one light a week, from earth to light.
