Stone and timber are set in deliberate balance here, the marble carrying the surface and the oak grounding it beneath.

Emperador Dark is a Spanish marble from the region of Murcia, a deep, even brown threaded with fine veins of white and cream calcite, the warmest and most grounded of the marbles Lebanto works with. The oak answers in kind: solid European oak smoked to a near-black brown, its grain still legible beneath the finish, so the marble and oak read as two tones of a single warmth. Each top is cut from the block it came from, so no two of these Emperador Dark marble and oak console tables share the same figure.

The oak does the work of holding the stone up. Two solid oak boards interlock at right angles into a cross-leg base, one passing cleanly through the other, the joinery left in full view as the piece's single gesture of craft. Stone meets wood with nothing worked in between them.

As an Emperador Dark marble and oak console table it settles a space rather than crowding it, at home along a hallway or against a wall. Like every Lebanto piece, the Maha is made to order in Cantù, in the historic heart of Lombardy's furniture district, from a curated material palette of full-slab stone, solid timber, and premium Italian glass.
