Materials

The Gold Boutique sources the most exquisite and elegant materials from all around the world for our beautiful Marble Plinths. We envisage how the dialogue between colour, material and form can be innovated.

Marble is created by the transformation of other stones through the action of high temperatures and intense pressures. As a result of this process new minerals, textures, and structures give rise to a large number of different beautiful types of marble.

The most nocturnal of marbles, invoking the moon whilst still belonging to the earth. Alluring, fascinating and ultra modern. Lending itself well to both honed and polished finishes.
