каменные изделия
Stone-works, or works made of stone...


Explanation:
The only problem I have with translating изделия as artifacts, is in the fact that it doesn't necessarily mean artifacts. In this case it would probably work, but I would still use on of the following: stone-works, works made from stone, items made from stone, or items made out of stone.
