Lighting • WHOLESALE AVAILABLE • CUSTOM COMMISSIONS
I create unique lighting out of domestic hardwoods that is either turned on a lathe or paired with hand blown or artisan glass. The pendant lamps use vibrant exterior and interior dyes to compliment the palette of any space. They come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors and are made one at a time to the customers specifications.

Q&A with the ArtistTell us how your work is made.The wood used is carefully selected for its grain and suitability for dye. Only sustainable domestic hardwoods are used. Once assembled, it is placed on a lathe and then turned with traditional carving tools. Custom non-toxic dyes highlight the beauty of the wood while adding a new aesthetic element not found in nature. It is finished with several coats varnish and polish to a beautiful luster. |
