But no less beautiful are the offcuts, the leftover hunks of marble that might be the wrong size for a backsplash yet nevertheless have their own undeniable appeal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Daniel Fintzi not only recognized the unrealized potential of these remnants but saw in them a business opportunity as well. In 2006, while working as an interior designer in Milan, where he had also studied, Fintzi traveled to China to oversee a project. He ended up staying in the country, eventually setting up a design practice in Shanghai. It was there that he came up with the idea of transforming marble offcuts into sculptural furniture. &#8220;It&#8217;s the best place in the world to source marble,&#8221; Fintzi says of China. And so, he cofounded Hong Kong\u2013based FORMAR, which produces tables from marble remnants, with Erich Heilemann, who oversees sourcing.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/furniture\/tables\/sofa-tables\/bold-contemporary-modern-low-side-table-stool-gray-orobico-marble\/id-f_50907582\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"578\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/12_BOLD_OR-1-950x578.jpg\" alt=\"Bold side table\" class=\"wp-image-436265\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/12_BOLD_OR-1-950x578.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/12_BOLD_OR-1-575x350.jpg 575w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/12_BOLD_OR-1-120x73.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/12_BOLD_OR-1-768x467.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/12_BOLD_OR-1.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">&#8220;it\u2019s like looking at a planet,&#8221; Fintzi says of Orobico marble.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to Fintzi&#8217;s own designs, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/dealers\/formar-designs-limited\/\">FORMAR<\/a> produces pieces by talents like Ming Design Studio&#8217;s Zhiya (Yona) Huang and Mingshuo Zhang, whose work he had admired for some time before approaching them about working together.

With its smooth, rounded form, rendered in stone marked by wild swirls of contrasting colors, the table is unquestionably alluring. &#8220;Your eyes are drawn to it, and your hands are drawn to it,&#8221; Fintzi says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"926\" height=\"780\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/marble.png\" alt=\"FORMAR's tables and decorative objects are crafted from marble offcuts.
