Onyx Bloom draws inspiration from organic forms, capturing the suspended moment of transformation, just as it is about to blossom.
The undisputed star is onyx, chosen for its unique ability to interact with light through translucency, one-of-a-kind veining, and organic chromatic variations. The stone unfolds in fluid, sensual lines, giving rise to a soft, living form that evokes an evolving organism.
Artist Riccardo Gatti’s work stands out for the contrast between polished surfaces and rough sections, where the human hand confronts nature’s expressive power. The stone’s natural cavities and “wounds” are not hidden but highlighted as authentic marks of its formation process, while internal crystallizations emerge as precious details.
Onyx Bloom is a unique, one-of-a-kind piece that expresses the tension
between control and spontaneity, between design and material. A sculptural work that transforms onyx into a living presence, capable of bringing light, depth, and emotion into a space.
