Console "Oneness"

The “Oneness” Console embodies the philosophy of the LITHIFICATION Collection, exploring the harmony and interconnection of natural stone forms. Five distinct, organically shaped elements fit together in balanced composition, symbolizing unity while preserving their individuality. A transparent glass top lends visual lightness and reveals the sculptural relationship between each stone element.

Lithification

LITHIFICATION by Anna Manako for Davani Home is a capsule collection of seven sculptural pieces that explore the metaphor of human connection through stone. Inspired by the natural process of rock formation, the collection reflects values of honesty, resilience, and trust - fundamentals of lasting relationships. Each asymmetrical form embodies the balance between individuality and unity, inviting reflection on how openness and vulnerability solidify unbreakable bonds over time.
