The Palmyre is a side table from Studio Ebur's Ebur Editions collection, its form drawing from Middle Eastern architectural ornament in a way that is specific and recognizable.
The piece is crafted from sucupira, a dense Brazilian hardwood that takes on a deep reddish-brown tone. The base is built from two stepped, inverted arch legs that meet at the center beneath the cabinet body, forming an alcove whose lowest point is marked by a small decorative finial. The arches carry a stepped profile that introduces a jagged rhythm referencing the geometric patterning found in Islamic architecture. A single drawer opens at the front, fitted with a round bronze pull knob.
Studio Ebur produces the Palmyre in workshops where woodworkers hand-finish the arch profiles and drawer joinery. The bronze knob is cast separately and fitted after finishing.
Racha Gutierrez and Dahlia Hojeij Deleuze describe Studio Ebur's aesthetic as a palimpsest, a layering of cultural references across time. The Palmyre makes that layering concrete: sucupira from South America, bronze hardware, and architectural forms that read across Ottoman, Moorish, and Levantine traditions.

About
Studio Ebur
Studio Ebur is a Paris design studio founded in 2020 by Racha Gutierrez and Dahlia Hojeij Deleuze. The name carries its own etymology: Ebur is Latin for ivory, a reference to the Ivory Coast where both founders grew up before studying architecture together in Paris.
Their practice covers furniture, lighting, objects, and spatial design. The aesthetic builds on West African craft, Mediterranean light and form, and the French and Italian decorative arts of the early twentieth century. References span Jacques-Emile Ruhlmann, Jean Dunand, Carlo Bugatti, and the Wiener Werkstätte. The studio describes this layering as a palimpsest, cultures accumulated across time that give each piece depth without fixing it to a single origin.
Production is distributed across workshops in France, Portugal, Italy, and Lebanon, each chosen for a specific technique: forged iron, stoneware, raw silk, or the Lebanese marquetry tradition that the studio weaves into contemporary furniture forms.
The debut furniture collection, Le bruit de la mer (2023), drew its title from a shared childhood memory: the sound of the sea on weekends in Ivory Coast and along the Mediterranean. The collection set the studio's formal vocabulary: curved silhouettes, textured surfaces, a tension between raw and refined that carries through their work. Signature pieces such as the Visconti armchair and the Dante mirror translate that vocabulary into domestic scale. Studio Ebur holds AD 100 recognition.
Their furniture and objects are available on Monde Singulier.
