A message from the owner:
Welcome to Studio Vertu! For over a quarter of a century we have been the premier producer of handcrafted marble giftware in the United States. Over time the business and the images have been ever changing and evolving but we still make premium products with old world, unearthed charm and integrity.
Our Product
Studio Vertu works primarily with tumbled Botticino marble. This particular rock is chosen for its lack of veins and lines so the printed image is not distracted by what mother nature provides us. Each piece of rock is examined by our artisans before the printing process begins. That being said, you should still expect to see the imperfections that nature provide; small nicks, dings and fissions are to be expected – like with fine raw silk they add to the unique beauty of the product.
In addition to the thousands of images in our collection we do custom images/artwork every single day. We have an easy process and the pricing is the same as if you ordered our images.
Our marble comes to us in 2”, 4” and 8” sizes.
Our Studio
Studio Vertu moved to Newport, Kentucky after spending over twenty years in the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood of Cincinnati. The move has been excellent for us! Our studio is a working manufacturing facility. We are small and intend to stay small, nimble and responsive. By relocating we have gained large scale efficiency through improved production layout, increased technology and material control.
Every single item is produced right here! We love it that way and we think you will too.
