History

Marble Crafters was founded in 1982 by Robert Capoferri, who learned the art of working with natural stone from his stepfather, a marble mason. 

What started as a humble one-man operation quickly grew into an installation company with several crews tackling projects across Philadelphia in the mid 1980s. During this time, Robert made his first trip to the marble quarries of Italy, where he established relationships that still benefit our clients today. 

After years of expanding his knowledge, expertise, and industry connections, Robert opened Marble Crafters current fabrication facility. He combined his promising fabrication operation with his established installation company to provide a seamless end-to-end natural stone solution.

Over 40 years later, Marble Crafters works with the most celebrated high-end builders on the East Coast along with the region's premier architects and designers. The relationships Robert Capoferri built with quarry owners globally have been passed onto their third generation owners. It's these bonds, built over decades, that allow Marble Crafters to offer stone that no one else in America can.
