Marble Accent Chair
bespoke marble seating
Two marble monoliths. A leather sling. A brass rod. Ana asks how far stone can go — a chair that is first a monument, and then a seat. Arabescato Vagli marble, quarried for its dramatic diagonal veining, forms the structural panels. Everything else follows from them.
Ana begins with two monoliths. Each panel is cut from a single marble slab — the same stone, chosen so that left and right tell one continuous geological story. The panels are not supports for a seat. They are the chair. The leather sling simply makes it human.
Natural vegetable-tanned leather, left uncoloured to preserve its raw warmth, is suspended between the panels by solid brass rods. As the leather ages, it darkens where hands rest, lightens where the sun reaches, and acquires the particular character of use. The marble does the opposite — holding its appearance with geological patience. Together, they record time differently.
Ana is composed of three materials selected for their relationship to time and touch. Arabescato Vagli marble provides the structural monoliths — quarried for its dramatic diagonal veining, its complex grey and gold mineral movement. Natural saddle leather, vegetable-tanned and left undyed, forms the suspended seat. Solid brass rods join the two, their weight and warmth mediating between stone and hide. Alternate marble selections are available on inquiry.

The leather sling, once broken in, conforms naturally to the body. Ana is low and deliberate — a contemplative chair rather than an ergonomic workstation. Many clients place it as a reading chair, a study accent, or a sculptural seat in an entrance or dressing room. It is comfortable in the way all well-considered furniture is: with intention.
The leather sling is looped around solid brass rods that pass through precisely drilled apertures in both marble panels. The rods are secured with flush brass fixings on each external face. The system is designed to allow the leather to be removed and replaced without disturbing the marble panels — the stone and hardware remain permanently in place.
Yes. The leather sling is designed as a replaceable component. We offer a re-leathering service and supply replacement slings to clients who prefer to install themselves. The natural ageing of the leather is intentional — many clients embrace its patina as part of the piece's evolving character. Alternate leathers, including darker or fuller-grain options, are available on inquiry.
The marble panels are sealed before delivery. Routine care requires only a dry or lightly damp cloth; avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners, which can dull the honed surface over time. Given Ana's use as occasional seating, the marble surfaces receive minimal exposure to liquids. A full care guide accompanies every piece detailing seasonal maintenance and re-sealing recommendations.
Your Selected View
Made to Order
Each Ana begins with the selection of marble — stone chosen for the particular character of its veining, cut so that both panels speak with one voice. Inquire to begin a conversation about stone selection, leather finish, and the specific presence of your piece.
