Natural Stones

What Natural Stones does

Natural Stones, doing business as Stone Nature, is a privately held, family-owned natural stone products company that quarries, processes, and distributes premium stone materials for outdoor living and architectural applications. The business was founded in 1989 in Denizli, Turkey, where the first generation began as a cut-to-size marble and travertine fabricator before vertically integrating upstream by acquiring travertine quarries in 1996, 2001, and 2003. Its core product lines include travertine, marble, and limestone/shellstone pavers, pool coping, and stone veneer (ledger panels and split face), with adjacent offerings in porcelain pavers and tiles, glass mosaics, artificial turf, and specialty items such as sealers, drain systems, and fire pits.

The company serves both residential and commercial buyers — primarily contractors, architects, developers, and homeowners building pools, patios, and outdoor structures — through a combination of purpose-built warehouse/showroom locations in Atlanta, GA (the US headquarters, opened by the second generation in September 2016) and Nashville, TN, alongside an e-commerce storefront at stonesnature.com. It also exports to more than 20 countries from its Turkish base. Revenue is generated primarily through direct hardware sales of natural stone and adjacent building products on a quote-based pricing model, with no publicly disclosed pricing, financial metrics, or external institutional investment; the company remains bootstrapped and family-controlled across two generations.
