Products

Are handmade products exactly as shown?

Our ceramics, marble pieces, and woven textiles are made by hand in small batches. Slight natural variations in glaze, pattern, colour, and form are inherent to handcrafted and natural-stone objects. We consider this a feature of the material — no two pieces are identical.

How should I care for my marble pieces?

Wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid acidic substances (lemon juice, vinegar, wine) as these can etch natural stone. Do not submerge in water. Marble develops a natural patina over time — this is desirable, not damage.

How should I care for my textiles?

Throws and cushion covers: dry clean or gentle hand wash recommended. Linen covers may be machine washed at 30°C on a gentle cycle and will soften beautifully with each wash. Always flat dry or dry away from direct heat.

How should I care for my candles?

Trim the wick to 5mm before every burn. Burn for at least 2 hours on the first light to achieve a full melt pool and prevent tunnelling. Never burn for more than 4 hours at a time. Allow the wax to set fully between burns.
