Precioso Accessories Collection by Stephen Burks for Salvatori

The Precioso accessories collection marks the second collaboration between American designer Stephen Burks and Italian natural stone brand Salvatori, and continues their mutual commitment to sustainability. As with Burks’ first offering, the Friends and Neighbors mirrors, the photo frame and vase that comprise Precioso embrace an admiration for the natural world and are constructed from stone off-cuts in a bid to reduce waste and offer new life to what already exists.

Meaning precious in Italian, Precioso was thoughtfully created with “the people and things that we hold dear to our hearts” in mind, according to Burks, and hold a deep respect for the beauty of natural stone.

Both the photo frame and vase are made from a palette of vivid and dramatic stones, including Verde Guatemala green, Giallo Siena yellow and Rosso Francia red, that are contrasted with classic Bianco Carrra and Nero Marquina marbles.

The resultant patchwork designs each exhibit a unique and unmatched personality, with the frame creating a beautiful spot for images of cherished loved ones and the vase representing esteem for nature.

Each Precioso vase places four rectangles of stone in different heights positioned around a clear glass cylinder in an elegant play of geometries, while the photo frame mixes a number of long and slim rectangular pieces to create a box that can hold both portrait and landscape orientations.
