Description from the seller
An exquisite blend of natural Italian luxury and innovative craftsmanship. This square 15 x 15 cm coaster/trivet is crafted from authentic Calacatta Marble (1 cm thickness), celebrated worldwide for its crisp white background and delicate grey veining. What sets this piece apart is its sought-after geometric surface pattern, developed in collaboration with master Italian stone artisans. Using a specialized technique of material subtraction, fine channels are sculpted directly into the marble. The result is a striking embroidery-like, woven relief that gives the stone a warm, tactile, and light-reflecting quality rarely seen in solid marble accessories. Whether styled as an elegant tableware accessory, an architectural base for a decanter, or a standalone decorative sculpture on a coffee table or desk, this piece seamlessly merges contemporary Italian savoir-faire with timeless organic beauty.

- 100% Natural Italian Calacatta Marble
- Dimensions: 15 x 15 cm, thickness 1 cm
- Finish: Handcrafted woven geometric relief via material subtraction, natural surface
