It makes handmade ceramic lamps and chandeliers in the extraordinary translucent and durable ‘bone china’ or ‘ivory porcelain’.
this porcelain ceiling light gives you warm, atmospheric light ánd directional light. The recessed hole in the bottom provides bright focused, shadowless light, and prevents you from looking into the light.
the lamps can applied in many places in the home, office, restaurant or hotel. As special eye-catching objects and atmospheric but practical mood lighting. They can be used singly but also in series or in groups with the possibility to vary in size and with the open and closed versions.
the lamps are produced manually in the artist’s own studio, cast in bone china. This material is often associated with classic, refined english tableware, but the sculptural shape makes it appear solid and monumental. The unglazed bone china in these objects – with their irregular shape and ‘skin’ – has a solid appearance which creates an intriguing tension with the translucent qualities of the porcelain.
each casting has a distinct design that only becomes visible when the form is illuminated from within. The design consists of drips, drops, trapped air bubbles, pinnholes and other irregularities in the cast material, which give the lights their lively character. Moreover, the finishing and the firing processes influence the final shape and surface of the lights. Each light is therefore unique.

note: all irregularities in the material add to the character of the lamp and are therefore part of the design. As each piece is unique, the lamp may differ slightly from the example images.
