Brownstone is crafted from individually hand-dyed strands of natural rye straw, meticulously arranged to create a flowing ombré composition that highlights the remarkable luminosity of traditional straw marquetry. The changing direction of every strand reflects light differently, bringing warmth, movement, and depth to the surface.Inspired by the rich tonal variation found in natural stone and timber, the work celebrates the quiet beauty of organic materials through subtle transitions in colour rather than ornament. The board is paired with NADALI’s signature handcrafted Equilibrium figures in onyx and tiger’s eye, and finished with brass details.
