Materials and care

Every piece is shaped over a lightweight sculptural core and finished by hand with multiple layers of mineral plaster, giving a dense, matte, stone-like surface. Mineral pigments, limewash tones and protective finishes are applied by hand according to the selected surface treatment.

Dust with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid prolonged direct water contact unless your piece was sealed for sheltered outdoor use — if in doubt, write to us; a real person from the atelier answers.

Production, approval and delivery

Each piece is handmade to order. Standard production typically takes 5–10 business days. Custom commissions and highly detailed pieces may require additional time. We share progress photos and videos throughout production and provide final visuals for approval before dispatch.

Insured door-to-door delivery is included in the displayed price unless a product page or checkout explicitly states otherwise. Once dispatched, transit typically takes 7–14 business days to the United States, Canada and Europe, and 10–21 business days to the rest of the world, depending on destination and service; carrier or customs delays can occur. For orders delivered within the United States, applicable customs duties and import charges are covered by Mono Aurel. For deliveries to all other countries, customs duties, import taxes and related destination charges are the buyer's responsibility. Any applicable sales taxes will be displayed at checkout where required. Every shipment is tracked and insured.

Each piece is cushioned and double-boxed like artwork, and you receive tracking as soon as it leaves the atelier. How we pack and ship

Returns and warranty

We share production photos and videos at important stages, and send a detailed final video before dispatch. Your piece is shipped only after you have reviewed and approved it. If you are not satisfied before shipment, we will remake the piece or refund you. Made-to-order production does not make a piece final sale: standard catalogue pieces, ordered in one of their listed sizes, colours and finishes, can be returned within 14 days of delivery under our Refund Policy. Pieces made specifically to your own specification — a bespoke commission — cannot be returned solely because of a change of mind. If a piece arrives damaged, defective or incorrect, contact us within 7 calendar days of delivery with photographs of the piece and its packaging. Every piece carries a one-year limited warranty for the original purchaser, running from the date of delivery, against verified manufacturing defects and product faults under the product's stated intended use. Where we verify a claim, we provide a replacement or a refund, and in most cases you will not be asked to return the original piece. Transit damage is not part of the warranty: it is handled through the 7-calendar-day damage report above. Full terms, exclusions and how to claim are on our Warranty page.

About this piece

A handcrafted sculptural object designed for architectural interiors, patios, gardens, entryways, and calm contemporary spaces.

The Hollow Monolith Totem is a freestanding organic sculpture with a soft vertical silhouette and a central opening that creates depth, shadow, and visual lightness. Its form feels both ancient and modern — like a weathered stone object shaped by time, yet refined enough for contemporary interiors.

Each piece is shaped over a lightweight sculptural core and finished by hand with multiple mineral plaster layers to create its distinctive stone-like surface. The surface is built slowly by hand to create a natural stone-like texture with subtle irregularities, depth, and tactile character.

This is not a mass-produced object. Every sculpture carries small variations in surface movement, texture, and tone, making each piece unique.

Available Sizes

Small — height 120 cm / 47.2 in, approx. width 34–40 cm / 13.4–15.7 in, approx. depth 22–28 cm / 8.6–11 in. Recommended for entryways, interior corners and covered patios.

Medium — height 150 cm / 59 in, approx. width 42–48 cm / 16.5–18.9 in, approx. depth 26–32 cm / 10.2–12.6 in. Recommended for living rooms, terraces and garden walls.

Large — height 180 cm / 70.8 in, approx. width 50–58 cm / 19.6–22.8 in, approx. depth 30–38 cm / 11.8–15 in. Recommended for statement interiors, villas, courtyards and landscape projects.

Because each piece is handmade, dimensions may vary slightly. If you need the sculpture to fit a specific alcove, niche, entrance or garden area, request a custom version.

Material & Finish

Handcrafted structural core, multi-layer mineral plaster surface, natural stone-like textured finish, matte and non-glossy. Suitable for indoor use, and for outdoor use with a protective outdoor finish.

Mineral pigments, limewash tones and protective finishes are applied by hand according to the selected surface treatment. The finish is inspired by limestone, travertine and weathered plaster surfaces, and is intentionally organic, tactile and slightly irregular.

Indoor & Outdoor Use

This sculpture can be used indoors or outdoors. For outdoor placement, we apply a protective finish suitable for patios, gardens, covered terraces and exterior architectural spaces.

For exposed outdoor areas, we recommend placing the sculpture on a stable, level surface. In windy areas or commercial and public spaces, additional fixing to the ground may be recommended.

Where to Use

Living rooms, entryways, garden walls, courtyards, patios and terraces, hotel and villa interiors, landscape design projects, poolside areas, and minimalist or wabi-sabi interiors.

Colour

The standard colour is a warm natural stone tone, similar to limestone beige or ivory plaster. Custom tones may be available upon request, including warmer beige, sand, taupe, charcoal, off-white and matte black. Colour may appear slightly different depending on lighting, screen settings and the handmade plaster texture.

Care

Clean gently with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive pads or pressure washers. For outdoor use, avoid placing the piece in standing water. For long-term exterior use, periodic protective maintenance may be recommended.

Important Notes

This is a handmade sculptural object, not a factory-made item. Small variations in texture, tone and surface movement are part of the character of the piece, and no two sculptures are exactly identical.

Large sculptural pieces are packed in reinforced protective packaging. Please provide a correct phone number and delivery address at checkout so the carrier can arrange door-to-door delivery.
