Jakšić Gallery has once again demonstrated how creativity, stone-carving tradition and understanding the client’s needs can come together to create a unique product. In collaboration with Jazz Travel Agency, we designed and produced stone figures for the participants of the SKF East Europe Management Meeting, an important conference for the company’s employees. This project highlights the importance of custom-made souvenirs, specially designed items intended for business partners and staff.
For this occasion, we created a stylised stone figure inspired by one of SKF’s most recognisable products – the bearing. This industrial element served as the basis for shaping a modern and elegant figure with raised arms, symbolising success, unity and progress, values strongly associated with the company. The minimalist design, clean lines and contrast between solid and open forms make this stone figure a memorable and visually striking gift.
Creating such pieces requires precision, creativity and expert knowledge of the material. Each figure is handcrafted, from cutting and shaping to final polishing, ensuring a high level of craftsmanship characteristic of the Jakšić workshop, known for its family tradition spanning more than a century.
This project is just one of many examples of companies recognising the value of personalised corporate gifts as a gesture of appreciation for their associates. Custom-made solutions allow a gift to become a symbol of a company’s identity, a keepsake of an important event, or a unique object with personal meaning.
For companies and individuals seeking gift ideas, especially those looking for something durable, aesthetically refined and symbolic, custom-made stone figures are the ideal choice. Our workshop is always available to develop fully personalised pieces – from concept to finished souvenir, crafted entirely according to the client’s wishes.
