The Beauty of Natural Stone - TIRAR
The natural stone range by TIRAR, designers and manufacturers of architectural door furniture and accessories based in Sydney, draws on the elegance of stone to create a series of timeless pieces that combine natural beauty with considered functionality.
TIRAR founder and designer Felice Carlino has always been driven by the belief that style and grace are just as important as structure and purpose. TIRAR’s natural stone range is at estament to this principle, comprised of a collection of architectural door furniture and accessories in stone that feel luxuriously smooth in the hand and offer the reassuring honesty present only in the tactile beauty of natural materials.
While the design and manufacturing of architectural hardware tends to be focused on utility, Felice states, “is anything so utilitarian that it should be denied the opportunity to be expressed in the allure of naturalstone?” The Mela and Cassetto stone cabinet pulls are a true reflection of this sentiment. Available in Fontainbleu stone and Calcultta marble, the materiality of the products sees the dark intensity of Fontainbleu complemented by the purity of Calacatta marble.
One of the most desirable Italian marbles in the world, Calacatta is a unique combination of white, grey and hues of gold flowing through the dramatic veins. Conversely, the true beauty of Fontainbleu stone lies in the rich and subtle details, the shadowy tones and the delicate linear viewing that delivers a beautiful natural finish.
A contemporary take on an ageless design in stone, classical cabinetryhardware has been reinterpreted by TIRAR to accommodate theunexpected new material. Offered in two sizes, the Mela stone cabinetpulls are a stylish addition to residential and commercial cabinetry.TIRAR’s Cassetto cabinetry pulls in solid stone, meanwhile, develop anew level of sophistication for the natural stone range.
Further expanding the tactile beauty of TIRAR’s natural stone range are the luxurious towel rails, shelving and Tutti stone products. Both designed to elevate the beauty of spaces, the towel rails are destined to become an unexpected focal point of the bathroom. The sensual curves of the design create the perfect stage to showcase the finest bath linen, bringing a distinctively luxurious feel to any bathroom space. The Tuttistone range can be used as hook, cabinet pull or handle, delivering a flexible, functional and handsome selection that lends style to the most mundane of tasks.

TIRAR’s natural stone range embodies the timeless beauty and quality of the material. “The textural finishes, visual characteristics and colour variation, determined randomly depending on the mineral content, excites our creativity,” reflects Felice. “It’s the inconsistency of stone which makes very piece of the collection of door furniture truly unique.”
