Manufacture and Origin
We don't source. We choose. Each piece is selected from European artisans whose workshops, materials, and methods we know. Small-batch production, noble materials, traceable origins.
Eco-responsible and unique art craft
Each piece has its own soul. This block, extracted one meter deep beneath its rocky crust, revealed a pure white heart. It was entirely sculpted and polished by hand near Morombe by a craftswoman from the nomadic Vezo community.
To own this object is to hold a fragment of natural history frozen in stone.

Care Instructions & Usage Precautions
Although petrified by time, fossilized coral remains a natural and noble mineral material that requires delicacy.
-
Handling: Handle your trinket dish with care. Although it weighs more than 600 grams, an impact on a hard surface (such as marble or tile) could chip its sculpted contours.
-
Cleaning: Simple regular dusting with a soft, dry or very slightly damp microfiber cloth is sufficient.
-
Products to avoid: Never use chemical cleaning products, detergents, or acidic substances (vinegar, descaler, lemon juice). The natural limestone of the fossil would absorb these products, dulling its original white color.
-
Recommended Use: This trinket dish is an art object intended for purely decorative use (keys, jewelry, coins). It is not suitable for food use (fruit bowl) or as an ashtray (ashes and heat could permanently mark the stone).
Logistics Note: Given the unique and precious nature of this piece, each shipment is subject to reinforced custom protective packaging to ensure delivery in perfect condition.
