Atmosphères is a collection with rough yet elegant taste offering a contemporary reinterpretation of the simple, unformal luxury of Pierre Bleue, a sedimentary stone from Belgium with a profound, thrilling energy all its own. Its distinctive, delicately variegated surface and subtly graduated shades tell a story reaching back over the millennia to a very distant past, when the area that is now Belgium lay under a sea rich in coralline formations.
