An old price list. A glimpse into a bygone era of construction and contracting, this is Bharat’s oldest price list to be printed in the late 1920s. One could get the “Sanjab” or the plain margin tiles of grey, order a large variety of mono-coloured tiles, Red octagons and black dots or Non - Slip Indented tiles at different prices which were given per 100 sq ft. The price list invited architects and buyers to come forth with their own unique floor pattern drawings after which Bharat would give them an estimate of the costing. An invaluable part of Bharat’s history, the booklet offers fascinating insights into the housing trends and the tiling industry from a century ago
