Instrumental Marble Bench
Named for its resemblance to the body of a stringed instrument, this bench pairs a waisted profile with a gently hollowed seat. The narrowing at the centre lightens what is otherwise a substantial mass of stone, so the piece sits comfortably in a room without dominating it.
Each bench is carved from a single marble block, with the waist and seat hollow worked by hand. The veining is read and oriented before cutting so that the pattern follows the curve of the form rather than fighting it.
Made to order and hand-inspected before crating. Custom sizing and alternative stones are available on request — see Technical Specifications below, or reach out for a consultation.
