The Zeus Stone is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, available exclusively through Hipnos Nicte Home. This umbrella stand comes with a certificate of authenticity, guaranteeing its exclusivity and certifying that only Hipnos Nicte Home is authorized to market this exceptional work of art. Each umbrella stand is carefully sculpted by hand, ensuring that no two are alike.
DESIGN
This Zeus Stone features a rustic and natural design, seemingly sculpted directly from an unpolished stone piece. Its irregular cylindrical shape, along with the rough texture of the surface, gives it an organic and primitive character. The style of this umbrella stand can be described as "rustic modern," combining simplicity and functionality with an aesthetic that evokes elements of nature. Its vertical, open structure is ideal for holding umbrellas of various sizes, and its robust design ensures that it remains firm and stable in place.
QUALITY
The quality of this umbrella stand is outstanding, crafted from high-grade travertine marble that guarantees durability and resilience. Although its appearance is rough and unpolished, the finishes are careful, ensuring there are no sharp or dangerous edges. The solidity of the travertine marble provides significant weight, preventing the stand from tipping over easily, even when holding multiple umbrellas. Its design and craftsmanship demonstrate meticulous attention to detail, making it both a functional and decorative piece.
MATERIALS
This umbrella stand is made from authentic travertine marble, known for its durability and strength. The marble has been worked to maintain its natural texture, adding character and uniqueness to each piece. This material is naturally resistant to moisture, making it perfect for use as an umbrella stand, as it can withstand exposure to water without damage. Additionally, it is easy to clean: a damp cloth is sufficient to remove dirt or stains, maintaining its fresh and natural appearance.
Travertine marble is a natural stone of sedimentary origin, primarily composed of calcium carbonate deposits that precipitate from water, typically in environments such as hot springs, caves, or rivers. This rock, known for its porous texture and unique appearance, comes in a range of colors from white and cream to shades of brown, gold, and reddish hues, depending on the mineral impurities present during its formation. Its name derives from the term "lapis tiburtinus," referring to the city of Tibur, now known as Tivoli, near Rome, where the Romans have extracted this stone since ancient times.
Travertine is appreciated for its versatility and unique characteristics, such as its porous texture and resistance to extreme weather conditions, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. This stone is lighter and easier to work with than other types of marble, allowing its use in a wide range of architectural applications, from decorative elements to monumental structures. Travertine marble is particularly famous for its use in the Roman Colosseum, the Spanish Steps, and many other iconic constructions of Roman and Renaissance architecture.
The extraction process begins with geological surveys to determine the quality and extent of the deposits, followed by the removal of the surface material and the extraction of blocks using controlled drilling and explosives. The extracted travertine is then transported to processing facilities where it is cut into slabs and subjected to various finishes, such as polished, honed, or aged, which enhance its natural beauty and versatility.
