Description
Fiorito is a light gray and natural stone which encloses small fossil remains. It is quarried in Puebla in Mexico by David Pompa Studio.
The rock is handcrafted in Mexico City, were its cylindrical form is shaped. The precise procedure enhances its physical characteristics, giving it its form through manual precise techniques.
Its beige tone makes it perfect for neutral contemporary pieces. A stone which was used both in America and Europe throughout ancient times due to its durability.
In this light version, fiorito transforms the tone palette into an equilibrium of light and fresh gray tones. A balance of round shapes that vary in weight and function. A perfect sculptural object by day and a rich illuminated texture by night.
David Pompa is an austrian-mexican designer based in Mexico. He created his brand in 2013, focusing on his passion for mexican culture and codes. His work is a profound research of new aspects of the mexican culture to create elegant and timeless pieces.
The Meta Collection is a Serie of light suspensions made of volcanic rocks and aluminium. Its cylindric form offers a soft and sharp aesthetic. The dark shades emphasizes the elegance of the overall piece.

The new series of light sculptures named Ambra combines volumes of ancient stones and aluminium. Centerpiece is the Mexican “Toba volcánica” stone that consists of minerals, glass and volcanic debris ejected one million years ago during severe eruptions. Fragments in the geometrical surfaces are testament to these explosions and movement.
The contrast between porous textures and smooth dark red underlines the studios contemporary approach on traditional materials and craft. The connecting components between the sculptural stone elements and the aluminium parts originate from an intensive research of linking unique handmade shapes with industrial parts.
