Company profile

Louis W. Mian, Inc. has been New England's premier source for natural stone since 1948. This company embodies four generations of stone knowledge and experience. In 1905, Angelo Mian of Italy arrived in Boston at the age of 26. Trained in the art of marble mosaic, Mian quickly gained recognition throughout New England for his work on the marble mosaic floors of the Massachusetts State House in Boston.

Angelo's son, Louis W. Mian Sr. followed in his father's footsteps in becoming a mosaic artisan. In 1927 Louis entered the School of Mosaics in Spilimbergo, Italy where he trained and honed his skills for the next three years. When he arrived in Boston in 1931, he became the second generation of the Mian Family to maintain and design the mosaic floors of the State House.

In 1946, after returning from a four-year stint in the Navy, Louis began his dream of owning and operating his own company. By 1963 the company had become incorporated, and later won an unprecedented ten consecutive national awards for excellence in the field of Terrazzo and Mosaic.

As the company grew, Louis' son Louis W. Mian Jr. (Bill) began working for his father. After earning a B.S. in Business Administration, Bill began working full time for his father. Seeing that the demand for marble and granite as a functional and decorative building material was growing rapidly in New England, Bill decided to redirect the goals of the company.

The new emphasis of Louis W. Mian, Inc. was to move away from mosaics to concentrate solely on marble and granite. Bill restructured the company by adding importation and distribution to the already well-established installation and fabrication facets of the company. The company provides homeowners, builders, architects, developers, and designers with the finest and most exclusive granite, marble, limestone, and slate in the world.
