A leather art-de-vivre piece by Maison Martel, capturing the imprint of a tree. Artisanal craftsmanship.

An otherness. Between humankind and primal nature, profound and meaningful interactions manifest and repeat themselves since the dawn of time. From them,

the French maison of craftsmanship Martel

draws inspiration to create objects that arise from a gaze, a gesture, a path.

A GAZE

One that rests upon a powerful nature. Stones, roots, leaves — the contemplation of the shapes of the natural world invites to wonder. The mind and the heart interpret, the shape becomes a sign. For ever since, humans have always sought to preserve its imprint.

A GESTURE

One that generates alliances between natural materials. With an inherited persistent and fruitful attention,

the hands of the artisans explore and guide leather

in an alliance with wood, clay, natural sap, towards a metamorphosis.

A PATH

One that humans tread between nature and object. This landscape of possibilities offers the freedom to trace a path of authenticity. At the crossroads of choices, the object - touched, carried, then kept - becomes a personal compass.

Crafted by adventurous and curious artisans, Martel pieces are marks of the enduring bond between humans and primal nature. Vibrant and vivid, they are just as much invitations to wonder. Gazes, gestures, paths.
