This elegant pair of ceramic lamps are distinguished by their warm caramel and ivory crystalline glaze, masterfully applied to a double-gourd form. The surface is alive with delicate crystalline blooms, each one formed through a highly specialised firing process that encourages crystals to develop and spread across the glaze. The result is a shimmering, organic pattern that recalls natural forms such as flowers, frost, or minerals, making each lamp entirely unique.
Crystalline glazing is a notoriously complex and unpredictable technique, demanding precise control of kiln temperatures and cooling cycles. Only the most skilled ceramicists achieve this level of clarity, depth, and consistency. The subtle gradations from ivory at the neck to rich caramel at the base highlight both the craftsmanship and the artistry behind the glaze.
With their refined silhouette and richly decorative surface, these lamps are striking in both contemporary and traditional settings, adding warmth, elegance, and a sense of artistry to any interior.
