What is Jaisalmer Sandstone?

Jaisalmer sandstone is a premium natural stone quarried from the Thar Desert region of Jaisalmer, Rajasthan, India. Its distinctive warm golden-yellow color — caused by naturally occurring iron oxide — has made it the stone of choice for Indian temple builders, palace architects, and contemporary designers for over a thousand years.

The stone is also known as Jaisalmer yellow stone, golden sandstone, or desert gold. The famous Jaisalmer Fort (Sonar Quila) — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — was built entirely from this stone and has retained its warm golden glow for over 800 years, a testament to its exceptional durability.

At Shraddha Saburi Stone, we quarry and process premium-grade Jaisalmer sandstone at our state-of-the-art facility in the RIICO Industrial Area, Jaisalmer. We supply slabs, tiles, jali screens, pillars, carvings, and custom architectural elements to clients across India, UAE, USA, and the UK.

FAQ

Common Questions

How is Jaisalmer sandstone different from marble or granite?
Jaisalmer sandstone has a warmer, more textured aesthetic than marble or granite. It is softer and easier to carve — making it ideal for intricate jali and sculptural work. It provides better thermal insulation. It is more affordable for large-area coverage and has deep cultural significance in Indian architecture. Unlike marble and granite, it cannot be highly polished but achieves a beautiful honed matte finish.
What is the price of Jaisalmer sandstone per square foot?
Standard Jaisalmer sandstone slabs typically range from ₹35–250 per square foot depending on grade, finish, and quantity. Custom carved elements are priced per piece. Export pricing in USD/AED depends on product and destination freight costs. Contact us at +91 7023912171 for a specific quotation.
