"Marmairo" is the voice of marble and was given to our company in its honor.
In our space, you can discover sculptures inspired by the Cycladic spirit. Our collection includes both original artworks and replicas of masterpieces from Cycladic culture, crafted on Naxian marble. Each sculpture is meticulously curated, ensuring that every piece is unique.
Our vision is to combine the minimalistic aesthetics of Cycladic culture with contemporary art, towards an innovate design that brings a sense of harmony at modern spaces.

Despina studied at the only artistic marble school in Greece, located on the island of Tinos. Coming from a family with a long tradition in the extraction and processing of Naxian marble, she followed the path of marble sculpturing to highlight the material through the creation of contemporary original works of art. Her vision is the redefinition of the material as well as the inclusion of the Cycladic minimalistic aesthetics in the modern era.
Manolis is focused on the extraction of Naxian marble and the production of Cycladic art. Having years of experience in marble mining, he has developed a keen eye of special pieces of Naxian marble that can be transformed into unique works of art, showcasing the beauty of this exceptional art form.
Who We Are
Manolis and Despoina, coming from a family with a long tradition in marble crafting, joined forces to work towards a shared passion. They visioned a space, where everything related to the Naxian marble - from its extraction up to its final transformation into a work of art - can happen simultaneously. Moreover, they provide guidance related to particularities and processing of this specific material. Τhe ultimate goal of their venture is to explore the limits of material, both as an expressive medium, so as the raw material of objects used in daily life.
