Delphine White Marble & Brass Kitchen Roll Holder

Real Marble. Warm Brass. A Pairing the Worktop Deserves.

The Delphine White Marble & Brass Kitchen Roll Holder is a freestanding paper towel stand built from two materials that have no business being this practical. A round white marble base — genuine stone, with the natural grey veining and subtle variation that only real marble carries — anchors a slender iron rod finished in warm brass that curves gently at the top to guide and control the sheet as you pull. The result is a holder that looks as though it belongs on a styled worktop shoot, and performs reliably enough to earn its place in a working kitchen.

At 32 cm tall and 14 cm wide, the Delphine has a slender, upright profile that sits quietly beside appliances, utensils, or a chopping board without crowding the workspace. The marble base provides genuine weight and stability — the kind that resists the tug of a full roll without needing to be anchored — while the curved brass-finish rod adds a warm, considered detail that coordinates naturally with gold bar pulls, brass tap fittings, and other warm-toned kitchen hardware. Light enough to move to the dining table for family meals or to the garden for outdoor entertaining, it transitions between spaces with ease.

How to Use

Assemble the holder by attaching the brass-finish rod to the marble base — a straightforward process that requires no tools and takes only a moment. Slide your kitchen roll onto the rod from the top and place the Delphine on any flat surface. To replace the roll, lift the empty tube clear and slide on a fresh one. Wipe the rod clean with a soft cloth. For the marble base, wipe with a soft, damp cloth and dry promptly — avoid prolonged exposure to water and do not use abrasive cleaners, which can dull or scratch the natural stone surface.

Why the Delphine Works

Marble is one of the few materials that genuinely improves a kitchen worktop by its presence. The white base with grey veining brings natural variation and a cool, refined quality that no synthetic finish can replicate — and because marble is a natural material, each Delphine base carries its own subtle pattern. The brass-finish rod is crafted from iron, giving it the structural strength to hold a full roll securely while the curved top provides a practical guide for the sheet. Together, these materials create a holder that is as much a worktop accessory as it is a functional tool.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the base genuinely marble?
Yes. The base is made from real marble — 50% of the product's material composition — giving it the authentic weight, texture, and natural grey veining you would expect from genuine stone. No two bases are identical, as marble's natural variation means each piece carries its own subtle pattern.

Is the rod real brass?
The rod is crafted from iron with a brass-effect finish, giving it the warm, golden tone of brass while providing the structural strength of iron. It is not solid brass, but the finish is durable and designed to maintain its warm metallic appearance through daily use.

Does it require assembly?
Yes, some assembly is required — the rod attaches to the marble base. It is a straightforward process that takes only a moment and requires no tools.

Will it fit a standard kitchen roll?
Yes. The Delphine is designed to accommodate standard-sized kitchen rolls widely available in UK supermarkets. The open-top design makes loading and changing rolls quick and straightforward.

Is the marble base stable enough for one-handed use?
Yes. The genuine marble base provides substantial weight and a broad, stable footprint that resists tipping during one-handed tearing, even with a full roll loaded.

How do I care for the marble base?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and dry promptly. Avoid prolonged exposure to water, acidic liquids, or abrasive cleaners, all of which can dull or etch the marble surface over time. Do not submerge the base in water.

How does this compare to the Delphine Chrome & Marble holder?
Both holders feature a genuine marble base and share the same Delphine range design language. The White Marble & Brass version uses a curved brass-finish rod for a warmer, more organic aesthetic. The Chrome & Marble version uses a straight polished chrome post for a cooler, more contemporary look. Choose brass for warm-toned kitchens; choose chrome for cooler or more minimal schemes.
