About the Master Business
The master stonemasonry business Ralf Kleine in Triptis (Thuringia, near Gera) produces custom gravestones, sculptures and stonework for house and garden in natural stone. The family business was founded in 1958 by Ralf Kleine's father and taken over by his son in 1990, who passed the master craftsman examination in 1988. The business primarily works for the cemetery of the municipality of Triptis, along with municipalities and private customers from the Saale-Orla district, the Saale-Holzland district and the Greiz district. In addition to the design and production of gravestones, the range of services includes consulting on design, inscription and execution.
