Our Objects & Materials

How are your pieces made?

Each piece is carved, cast, or hand-finished by our team of skilled artisans in our atelier in Rajasthan, India. We work in small batches using Indian marble, travertine, solid brass, and aluminum. Most of our stone is sourced from remnant slabs — high-quality material that would otherwise go to waste. Variations in shape, finish, and surface detail are part of the handmade process.

Will my piece look exactly like the photo?

Not exactly. Natural stone varies in veining, tone, and surface detail from slab to slab, so no two pieces are identical. Brass and aluminum may also have subtle shifts in surface finish. If you have a preference for a particular look, add a note at checkout and we'll do our best to accommodate, though exact matches are not guaranteed.

Will my piece change over time?

Yes, and that's intentional. Marble may absorb oils and develop a natural patina over time. Brass oxidizes and deepens in color with age and touch. These are normal processes that reflect the life of the object. You can polish brass with a gentle metal cleaner to restore brightness if you prefer.

How do I care for my object?

Marble and stone: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Use mild soap and water for stains. Avoid harsh cleaners and acidic substances like lemon or vinegar, which can etch the surface.

Brass: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Polish with a gentle metal cleaner to restore brightness, or let it age naturally.

Aluminum: Low maintenance — simply wipe clean with a soft cloth.

Our marble pieces are suitable for dry foods like fruit, bread, and nuts. Avoid prolonged contact with acidic foods. Metal pieces are for decorative or dry use only.

What does "limited production" mean?

Many of our objects are made in small runs tied to a specific stone lot. Some designs can be reproduced, but others are available only once. When the stone is gone, it's gone. Whether a sold-out piece returns depends on stone availability. Sign up for our newsletter to be notified of restocks and new drops.

How do vintage pieces differ and are they returnable?

Our vintage collection is carefully sourced to align with the materials and aesthetic of our own work. These pieces carry marks of age and patina that are part of their character. All vintage sales are final.
