Apollonia is a planter drawn new for Archilumos. It is a white marble bowl with a thick rim and a half-sphere form, with fine grey veining on the surface. The bowl sits in a thin brass ring and rises off the floor on three long brass legs. Several ancient cities in Anatolia carry the name Apollonia; Gölyazı on Lake Uluabat in Bursa is one of them. It works as a planter, a bowl or a fruit dish. If you plant in it, setting the plant in its own pot inside protects the marble from water marks. We wipe the marble with a dry or slightly damp cloth; do not use acidic cleaners. Brass darkens over time. It stands in an entrance, a living room, a reception or on a dining table. Marble type, vein tone, brass finish and size are decided at order.

Our Design Studio takes a home, villa or hotel from floor plan to handover as one team: site survey, concept, photorealistic 3D visualisation, material selection, production in our own factory and installation on site. You see this piece in your room, in the finish you chose, before anything is made.

Carrara, Calacatta, Emperador, travertine and onyx: which marble suits which piece, how it compares with quartz and how often the surface needs sealing. Practical notes from our factory.

What is brass made from? A copper-zinc alloy never found pure in nature. From mine to PVD coating: which finish keeps furniture brass bright for years?
