Branik Delight is a family brand, founded in 2020 by Agata Knorowska, an interior designer with a wide portfolio of Polish and foreign private and commercial interiors, a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. Branik specializes in interior design elements (trays, candlesticks, bowls) made of various types of carefully selected, precious pieces of marble, onyx, travertine and quartzite. The stones come from all over the world (Italy, Spain, Brazil, Portugal, Iran and Pakistan), and Branik are designed and made in the brand's Warsaw atelier.

Branik is the surname of my great-grandmother, Zofia Branik. She was born at the turn of the 20th century in Odessa, where she spent the first dozen or so years of her life absorbing the influences of many cultures, the diverse, rich architecture, and Mediterranean customs. Before the revolution, Zofia returned to Poland with her parents, Ewa and Jan Branik. The family's subsequent fate is sad and complicated, like many European biographies. Yet Zofia Branik, despite many hardships and tragedies, never lost her joy for life. She loved to please herself with small things, and they made her every day more pleasant. When the family lost everything, memories and small items remained: a cup, a spoon, a piece of tablecloth. My grandmother made sure that the space around her, though very modest, was pleasant, that there was at least one flower in the vase and a candle lit in the evening. She could enjoy beautiful weather, blooming bushes in the park, a single small cookie. Her story and attitude inspired me to create the Branik Delight interior accessories brand.
