Agate: Natural Luxury

With deep colours and naturally occurring lines and curves, agate is truly mesmerising and it’s no surprise that it’s the focal point of our new interior collection. Our range features a wide range of agate decor, from photo frames to statement coffee tables in unique, almost otherworldly patterns. The beauty of agate comes from the richness of the layers and exotic veining patterns, similar to marble it’s a wonderfully tactile addition to any decor scheme.

What is petrified wood?

There’s no denying that petrified wood is a unique aesthetic, marrying the organic nature of wood with the smooth visage of natural marble. This exquisite material is one of the driving forces of our Relic collection and a sought-after material in contemporary homes across the globe. At its most basic level, petrified wood is a fossil that has literally been turned to stone and perfectly preserved. Offering what can only be described as a ‘prehistoric charm’, it’s the ideal material for those looking for luxurious natural materials for the home. Boasting natural artistry that’s perfect for sculptures, candle holders and larger furniture pieces, petrified wood furniture has always been on the cutting edge of interior design.
