Essence Of Stone

Our Story

Essence of Stone began as a small business driven by a passion for quality and a love of working with natural stone. Glenn Carpenter, after years of traveling the world sourcing granite and marble for large importers, decided to take the leap and build his own company. His wife, Lee, joined him on this journey, and together they started Essence of Stone, a true family affair. They began with a single truck and a modest showcase representing a small selection of stone varieties. Driven by their commitment to excellence, they meticulously hand-picked only the finest materials, setting the stage for the level of quality that continues to define Essence of Stone today.

The company has since blossomed, evolving into a renowned name in the industry. Essence of Stone has cultivated strong relationships with the most esteemed stone suppliers worldwide, ensuring access to a vast and diverse range of materials. The business has also expanded to a more spacious facility in Parkerford, Pennsylvania, featuring a comprehensive showroom and state-of-the-art fabrication facilities. This expansion allows Essence of Stone to offer an even wider array of options to its discerning clients while maintaining its steadfast commitment to personalized attention and customer satisfaction.
