Handcrafted from beige and red travertine, this unique ottoman/end table features a heart-shaped centerpiece holding and locking the two halves together.

Inspired by a childhood memory, my sister and I built a plush toy together! Before stitching it up, we slipped a small fabric heart inside, warming it in our tiny palms before tucking it in. It was our secret, making our toy feel alive, like it held a piece of our love.

Wanting to recreate that warmth and love, StoneHeart comes in two halves, like a puzzle waiting to be solved. Without something to unite them, they’re just two lonely pieces of stone. But just like in our childhood, this red travertine heart is the key to bringing the stool to life. When you place the heart in its spot, the two halves lock together, and the piece becomes whole!

It’s like giving a piece of our childhood magic - a tale of love, imagination, and the power of a simple gesture.

Sonder, the realization that every person we encounter has a life as vivid, complex, and meaningful as our own resonates deeply with our design philosophy. Each of our handcrafted pieces carries the story of materials, techniques, and human hands, reminding us that behind every creation lies a layered network of experience, memory, and care.

From clay shaped by centuries of cultural tradition to marble and alabaster that have formed over millennia, our materials hold histories that stretch far beyond the studio. Through careful, intentional making, we honor these layers, turning them into objects that invite quiet reflection. Each piece becomes a bridge between the maker, the material, and the user, a subtle reminder that every form, every texture, and every surface is connected to a life, a story, a moment.

In this way, our products are more than objects; they are vessels of sonder, encouraging us to see and feel the depth in everything around us.
