                                                    Featured in Intrecciata Venezia and crafted from Rainforest Brown marble and fine pear wood, the Almadies Side Table is a bespoke piece imbued with both personal meaning and historical resonance. Its name and inspiration stem from the vibrant Almadies district of Dakar, Senegal—a place of deep personal significance. 
The richly veined marble recalls the texture and depth of the African landscape, while the pear wood, long revered in Venice during the era of the Serenissima for its refinement and noble character, brings a warm, polished elegance. Together, these elements create a quietly powerful composition—an homage to memory, material, and timeless craftsmanship.
