Inspired by the architecture of Venetian churches, the collection 'An Alternative History' by French designers Oud is a testament to this universe and the savoir-faire that survived through the ages. Featuring a marble motif painted by a highly-trained French artist entirely by hand, this ancient technique was common in the 17th and 18th century across Italy and France. The Santa Maria dei Miracoli wall console is anchored by a hand turned solid oak sphere, balancing the decorative details of this artistic object.
