A RECORD, NOT A CATALOGUE

Collected Does Not Mean Disappeared.

A LITHMORA work remains part of the record after it is collected. Its archive entry preserves the relationship between material, form and the exact physical object.

Natural stone cannot be reproduced exactly. The archive exists so that the object does not disappear when it leaves the collection.

ONE STONE · ONE WORK · ONE RECORD.

06 / THE ARCHIVE STANDARD

A Permanent Record of the Exact Object

01

EXACT OBJECT

The physical work itself is photographed and documented as the record.

02

MATERIAL RECORD

Stone, dimensions, weight and visible material characteristics are retained.

03

PERMANENT NUMBER

One archive number belongs to one individual physical object.

04

RECORD REMAINS

Collected works remain part of the archive after they leave LITHMORA.

07 / NATURAL VARIATION

No Two Records Are the Same.

Veining, crystalline cavities, inclusions, banding and changes in transparency belong to the stone itself. They are not defects to be standardized away.

A recurring form may return. A related material may return. The exact object will not.

THE OBJECT IS THE RECORD.

The archive is continuous. New materials, forms and singular works continue to enter the record.
