Exceptional materials

Rare materials that bring your unique furniture to life

Where every piece becomes a work of art.

The subtle harmony of rare materials and fine cabinetmaking

At Eben&Or, the selection of materials is an art in itself. Far beyond their functional role, each material is a source of inspiration and poetry — a promise of emotion and lasting beauty.

We explore a rich and singular world where delicate minerals, rare leathers, natural fibers, and precious metals meet. These exceptional materials enhance the wood, extend its elegance, and reveal its every nuance. They embody the union of artisanal tradition and contemporary innovation, all in service of bespoke, timeless creation.

This meticulous selection reflects our ambition to elevate each piece of furniture to the status of a work of art — where every detail matters, and every detail tells a story. Matter becomes language. Finish becomes emotion.

Inspired by raw metals, FullMetal paint offers a deep, textured finish. Perfect for enhancing the lines of contemporary furniture or accentuating architectural details.

Gold leaf, applied by hand according to the rules of the art, illuminates creations with brilliance. It's a classic finish for luxury furniture and high-end decorative panels.

Used as a veneer or inlay, horn lends an organic, precious touch to bespoke furniture. Its natural nuances and singular texture make it a rare material in fine cabinetmaking.

Crocodile, calfskin or noble leathers: selected for their unique grain and elegance, they adorn top-of-the-range furniture with a luxurious, durable finish full of character.

Marine leathers

Extracted from marine species (fish, ray...), these rare leathers offer a surprisingly refined texture. Perfect for original finishes on contemporary custom furniture.

This natural mineral is appreciated for its metallic reflections and iridescent shades. Integrated into the surface, mica enhances furniture and wall panels with a raw, mineral sheen.

Parchment, a noble and delicate material, provides a soft, matte and subtle finish. Perfect for exceptional furniture, it evokes the discreet elegance of the decorative arts.

Selenite ( Gypsum)

A translucent stone with pearly reflections, selenite is prized for its luminous, soothing qualities. It imbues art furniture with an almost mystical mineral aura.

This exotic, pearl-grained leather, often used for sheathing, gives bespoke furniture a jewel-like appearance. Shagreen is a signature of fine cabinetmaking and exceptional decorative design.

Straw Marquetry

A rare and refined technique, straw marquetry plays with light to create graphic patterns with changing reflections. An emblematic expertise in custom-made decorative furniture.
