The fireplace, history and tradition.

Since the dawn of time, one of the primary necessities of man’s concept of “dwelling” has been to procure, domesticate, confine, and maintain fire by exploiting it for lighting, heating, and cooking. The fireplace owes its birth to the Normans, but it knew its heyday in the era of Louis XVI.

Although in the modern world the need is often purely aesthetic and decorative, the fireplace remains an undisputed symbol of family warmth and conviviality. A piece of furniture that we are naturally inclined to associate with winter, but which can become, with simple ideas, the centerpiece in home decoration in any season.

THE MATERIAL.

The Carrara marble is the Italian natural stone known and appreciated worldwide both for its incomparable aesthetic qualities and for its structural, physical and morphological characteristics, which make it unique and incredibly versatile. All the great sculptors have measured themselves with this material which in the clearest variety is not by chance called Statuary .

WHITE MARBLE from Carrara has a pearly white background tone, slightly cloudy with more or less present and evident grayish intrusions and dots, variegated veins, millimeter or centimeter. Precious ally of the modern concept of living, white marble fits into any type of environment and furniture, from classic to modern, giving an undisputed touch of elegance and value.
