Mortex
A testament to nature
Mortex is a unique plaster technique crafted from a blend of minerals, lime, and mortar, celebrated for its artisanal, handcrafted application. Each piece is shaped by skilled hands, making every design truly one of a kind. This technique embraces imperfections as part of its charm, reflecting raw beauty and the unpredictability of the crafting process. No two surfaces are ever alike, with their individuality further enhanced by the way temperature influences the material’s color. The coating is manufactured in Belgium and is composed of 95% natural ingredients sourced in Europe.

Maintenance tips
Our tables are designed for easy upkeep, with protective layers that help repel most dirt. However, certain substances from daily use, such as coffee, wine, fruit juices, spices, lemon juice, and oils, should not be left on the surface for extended periods. Similarly, avoid leaving large amounts of water or wet objects on the table for too long. If not cleaned immediately, fats, dyes (such as those in wine or coffee), and other substances can penetrate the protective layers and cause stains. Extra caution is needed with highly pigmented foods like turmeric, beetroot, and flower pollen (especially from lilies), as these can leave stubborn marks. Always clean spills promptly using water, a cleaning agent, and a soft sponge—never the abrasive side, as this may scratch the surface. To preserve the table’s appearance and durability, do not place candles directly on the surface; always use a holder or tray. Additionally, avoid placing hot pots or pans directly on the table to prevent thermal shock. The table should never be used as a cutting surface, and sharp or heavy objects should be handled with care to prevent damage.
