Since each marble block is unique, each PEDRA vase appearance may vary from hundreds of possible natural designs and colours.

The Minimalist Marble Vase Small showcases clean lines and a sculptural form, offering the perfect backdrop for displaying fresh flowers, dried botanicals, or decorative stems. Made from Estremoz marble, the vase reveals the unique natural variations of the stone, with each piece being one-of-a-kind. Its understated design emphasizes the purity and elegance of the material, making it a versatile and timeless addition to any interior.

Complementing the vase, the Pedra Plate Medium elevates functionality and design with its elegant simplicity. Designed by Manuel Aires Mateus, this stone platter is inspired by a simple, circular shape and crafted from Estremoz marble. The plate features vertical grooves carved into its pristine surface, creating a unique aesthetic that is both practical and visually striking. These grooves not only enhance its appearance but also serve a functional purpose by keeping the surface dry, making it ideal for serving food, displaying objects, or as a decorative accent piece.
