Candle Holder in Travertine

Marco Danesi likes to whiten himself with powder: it is the pure, white and thin one that nebulises around him during the marble processing phases. This always happens when he is in his creative laboratory founded in the historic scenario of the Fantiscritti Quarries in Carrara and expression of his brand, Carrara Home Design. It is here that Marco combines the craftsmanship of the precious Tuscan marble with his creative passion as a designer: he creates exclusive design objects and furnishing accessories in precious Carrara marble, giving new style and functionality to the material value of this sculptural and refined stone, from centuries, all over the world. Fantiscritti is in fact the most important marble basin in Carrara and here, Marco's grandfather, Walter Danesi, created a real open-air marble museum. An evocative place, immersed in the whiteness of the quarries and testimony of a long history built with the effort of an ancient craft and made famous by the creativity of illustrious sculptors. The style of Carrara Home Design wants to be elegant and contemporary, capable of giving new form and functionality to the classicism of the material. Thus art and design become accomplices in a production of unique pieces made with a careful choice of natural materials and in the name of sustainability.
