How we work: drawings to US delivery

Short answer: Limaxin is a drawing-led stone fabricator — not a catalog house. Teams send drawings or references; we confirm material with samples, approve shop drawings, carve in Quyang, crate for export, and ship to the United States under clear Incoterms.

Six steps from first contact to jobsite

  1. 01

    Drawings & references

    Send CAD, BIM, PDF, photos, or opening dimensions. Designers use the Specifiers checklist; trade buyers include volume and Incoterms preference.

  2. 02

    Samples

    Physical stone samples ship from Quyang so you confirm color, texture, and vein direction before we carve.

  3. 03

    Shop drawings

    We produce fabrication drawings from your plans. Production starts only after your written approval.

  4. 04

    Carve & QC

    CNC, waterjet, and hand carving in Quyang — with photo/video QC. Typical custom fab is 8–16 weeks after shop-drawing approval.

  5. 05

    Export crating

    1-inch solid-wood crates, foam protection, iron-reinforced frames, piece IDs, and packing lists for your installer.

  6. 06

    US delivery

    FOB, CIF, DDU, or DDP. Ocean transit is typically +4–7 weeks. Your contractor installs; we supply notes and recommend 5–10% spare on large scopes.

Not a catalog house

Retail galleries sell browse-and-buy mantels. Limaxin wins when you need openings matched to drawings, multi-piece programs, and bidable logistics. Compare: vs Fine’s Gallery · vs From Europe To You.
