Vermont Marble Platter

This piece is a shallow basin carved from Vermont marble, quarried in the northeastern United States.  Notable for its creamy, shimmering whites and swirling veins of gray-green, this marble has been used in important American architectural and sculptural landmarks in New York City and Washington, D.C.  Vermont marble is hundreds of millions of years older than Carrara marble, and has a larger crystal structure and lower porosity than the Italian variety.

Greenpoint Stone, founded by sculptors Kellie Pereira and Stephen Shaheen, is a design studio based in Brooklyn. Their designs direct us to look at stone as works of art.  Each piece is created by hand in the Greenpoint Stone studio. No two sections of stone are identical, therefore, every Greenpoint Stone object is entirely unique and a one-of-a-kind piece of functional art.  We love bringing natural elements indoors - think marble, stone, beautiful woods. The different stone materials - travertine, marble, onyx, to name a few - create beautiful and unique vessels to display fruit atop the kitchen counter, hold keys and things on your console, or stand alone as sculptural objects.
