About the Item
Marble platter “Opa!” is a sculptural object designed to awaken the senses and transforms marble offcuts into a refined, lightweight design.
Carved from our own marble remnants and shaped by a master marble craftsman, ‘Opa!’ comments on shifting cultural values—contrasting today’s practice of upcycling with the material exuberance of the 1960s. Its softened volume and carefully finished surface invite touch, creating a quiet dialogue between material permanence and emotional intimacy.
The piece draws inspiration from the custom of smashing plates in Greek nightclub and live-music performance stages of the 1960s, as a way to honor performers, express joy, and display wealth. Here, we reverse the gesture: instead of breaking objects to show abundance. We reimagine overflowing marble waste piles as fine platters finely crafted to last forever.
________________________________________
What makes it unique:
The fine matte finish, enhances the tactile properties of the stone, revealing both its natural veining and its smoothness to the touch. ‘Opa!’s’ gentle contouring and matte surface are the result of a sculptor’s hand, refining stone into an object that feels soft.
________________________________________
Visualizing it in your space:
Minimal in form yet rich in material presence, ‘Opa!’ on a table, it functions as a contemporary serving plate, ideal for presenting dry fine foods with quiet sophistication. Whether in white, dark green, or golden brown marble, Io adds depth and warmth to its surroundings, shifting naturally between practical use and decorative presence.
Whether in white or green marble, ‘Opa!’ adds depth and warmth to its surroundings, shifting naturally between practical use and decorative presence.
________________________________________
Background & Identity:
At on.entropy, design is an act of metamorphosis—transforming marble from a stern, monumental substance into something intimate and tender. ’Opa!’ embodies this philosophy, shaped by artisans whose skill and sensitivity create a balance between strength and softness. Every edge is hand-sculpted in our studio, affirming a heritage of craftsmanship while offering a fresh narrative of love expressed through stone.
________________________________________
Why it’s worth the price:
’Opa!’ is more than a serving accessory; it is a sculptural piece that carries with it centuries of Greek stone artistry. Its seamless carving, refined finish, and thoughtful ergonomics highlight the extraordinary skill of the artisans who shape it. The individuality of each marble block ensures that no two platters are alike, making Io both a functional object and a collectible design piece. By bringing Io into everyday rituals, one brings marble into intimate contact—an enduring material translated into a modern, sensory experience.

on entropy
on • entropy is a marble atelier established since 2009 in London & Athens by Niki and Zoe Moskofoglou. Marble, an archetypal greek material, takes on an unconventional role in on • entropy's designs; they encapsulate the contradiction of being heavy and compact and at the same time vulnerable, fragile and translucent. Its diverse character is the core of the atelier’s founding mission: to experiment with marble and its entropy;
The result is the craftsmanship of intricate and delicate creations, evolving its diachronic qualities in an imaginative & contemporary way. Created and run by sisters Niki and Zoe Moskofoglou, on • entropy is the fruit of a 40 years long family affair with marble in Greece. NM is an architect with an academic training in Design. Her work demonstrates an architectural detailing and instinct of how Space and Object can surpass mere function.
ZM is a civil engineer with expertise in Sustainable Heritage. From the cultural landscape of the quarry to refined marble, she wants to offer a Future to the Past human and natural environment. NZM founded their design studio to reflect both art and craft. Pushing the boundaries of marble,
their work begins with the human experience and an interaction with the senses; it demands contemplation. Today on • entropy creations are presented at established european galleries including Rossana Orlandi and Mint, while collaborations on commercial projects (Le Bon Marche, Four Seasons) carry on.
