This geographical distribution of showrooms significantly enhances accessibility for designers, architects, and homeowners seeking high-quality materials for their projects.
The company's inventory features an impressive range of materials, including Italian Marble, Quartzite, Granite, Travertine, Limestone, Onyx, and Porcelain. These materials are sourced from exotic locations such as Brazil, France, Italy, Israel, Egypt, Morocco, Turkey, and Spain, catering to diverse design preferences and project requirements. The global sourcing strategy ensures a unique and varied selection that is not commonly available through single-source suppliers. By offering materials from multiple international sources, Carmel Stone Imports enables clients to access distinctive stone solutions that can transform residential and commercial spaces with elegance and enduring style.
Carmel Stone Imports provides comprehensive services across several key stone categories. Their Porcelain/Ceramic Tile collection offers both aesthetic appeal and practical durability for various applications. Their Natural Stone selection includes premium slabs sourced directly from renowned global quarries, providing authenticity and quality. Furthermore, their Mosaic collection offers unique patterns and textures that provide significant design versatility for feature walls, backsplashes, and flooring. This categorized approach helps clients navigate the extensive options based on their specific functional and aesthetic needs.
Owner Robbie Robinson emphasizes the company's commitment to helping clients realize their design visions through an exceptional variety of high-quality materials combined with personalized service. The three showrooms are designed not just as display spaces but as consultative environments where clients can explore the physical inventory and consult with knowledgeable staff. This hands-on experience is crucial for stone selection, as it allows clients to assess the color, veining, and texture of materials in person, ensuring the chosen stone perfectly aligns with their specific design intent and project requirements. The availability of such a diverse, globally-sourced inventory in local showrooms reduces logistical challenges and provides greater assurance in material selection for significant design investments.
