About Us

Our story

Pierre Heritage GB (PHGB) came about as the result of a long term collaboration between Amarestone in the UK and Pierre Heritage in France. The French quarries wanted a stronger link with the English speaking customer base and so PHGB was born.

French Limestone quarry blocks
 
French Limestone Quarry Blocks

Most of our quarries offer the chance to buy “raw” blocks direct from the quarry. We can then arrange for them to be transported to your workshop, anywhere in the world.

We recommend a visit to the quarry so you can fully understand the technical and aesthetic and characteristics of the stone.
