Thirteen objects in Italian stone, each cut from one block and numbered. Then never a fourteenth.
Stone and the human body share a language of form.
Both are shaped by time. Both carry unique marks, subtle variations, and an identity that cannot be repeated.
The veins running through stone resemble the hidden lines beneath the skin — traces of movement, memory, and life. Its surfaces invite touch. Its weight creates presence. Its imperfections make every piece singular.
Our furniture is designed as a meeting between the human body and the material body of stone. Soft gestures encounter precise forms. Warm skin contrasts with cool surfaces. Movement meets permanence.
Each piece is created to live alongside the body — to support it, surround it, and become part of the spaces where life unfolds.
The body moves. Stone remains.
Marble is the protagonist.

A collection of sculptural furniture and objects where marble is the protagonist.
The stone is opened, and the opening is lit.
Artistic pieces such as coffee tables and lighting fixtures, inspired by ancient gods and the aesthetics of Ancient Rome. Nothing is applied to the stone and nothing is hidden inside it.
Marble, brass, smoked glass, wood, metal.
Ten stones. We are going to see them in September.
We are like rare book collectors. We see you, and we want to find you another part of you — and we will cross the universe left and right, up and down to find it.

Named on the certificate, one block to one object.
They are taking care of both — the quarry and the work area.
Breccia Medicea dell'Acquasanta comes out of a single active quarry at Stazzema, in the Apuan Alps park. It sounds the most promising because they have both. They are doing everything in-house.
Fifty minutes from Carrara, and the only active quarry cutting it.
We do not buy whole blocks.
A block yields twelve, sixteen slabs. We need one.
- You leave a drawing and a size.What the piece is for, and the room it will live in.
- The quarries tell us when the right block appears.We do not order stone. We wait for it.
- You choose the vein before it is cut.Photographs from the yard, in daylight, while it is still a block.
- It is cut, numbered, and certified.Numbered against the edition, and yours before it leaves Italy.
Three months, about, from drawing to delivery.
There is only one object that is for you.
Pieces in the first edition. Blocks cut, numbered, certificate, shipped — and never a fourteenth.
One body, one object. The stone is unique as you are, and in some ways it is a missing part.
Stone outlives its gods. The certificate names the quarry, the block, the number and the date.
You should request an invitation.
Not everyone can step into the shop. Tell us the room, and we will tell you what is possible in it.
We answer every one. Thirteen pieces means we can.
