The stone hand carving tradition of Pakistan, historically rooted in Taxila’s ancient Gandhara civilization, is rapidly dying out. This heritage art is fading because modern machine-cutting technology offers faster, cheaper alternatives that manual artisans cannot compete with financially. Additionally, a severe lack of government patronage, diminishing local markets, higher prices, low wages, and lack of awareness discourage the younger generation from learning the grueling craft and make it difficult for people in this industry to survive.

To counter the decline of stone carving industry, Stoneticate is taking steps and actively working to revive the industry. By promoting these unique, handcrafted masterpieces globally, Evens provides artisans global access to customers, sustainable livelihoods, and the international recognition needed to preserve this invaluable cultural legacy.
