SHELL LAMP

BSWEDEN

2015

 

The Shell Lamp consists of an encasing shade, a stoneware shell, that directs the light downwards like a spotlight. Inspiration for the shape comes from Japanese pots and other simple clay and ceramic bowls

 

The slight protrusions at the upper top of the shade are the only ornamentation, also emphasizing the suspension of the lamp from double wires

 

Engobe has been applied to the outside of the shade to produce a matt, slightly textured surface
