Abalone Task Lamp in Coiled Brown Leather with Natural Seashell Shade — Model No. 026
Abalone Task Lamp in Coiled Brown Leather with Natural Seashell Shade — Model No. 026
Introducing the Green Abalone Task Lamp in Coiled Brown Leather, the latest release from the Venus Collection, a whimsical family of handmade fixtures inspired by the Surrealists and natural forms of the sea. Employing the latest advances in cool-to-the-touch LED technology, the collection features table lamps, floor lamps, and sconces made with hand-selected vintage specimen seashells in place of traditional shades, putting the organic source material behind so much 20th century modernism front and center.
The ruggedly handsome Model No. 026 is a double-jointed riff on that 20th century workaday staple—the humble desktop task lamp. At 18” tall, it is slightly larger than traditional models, ensuring even illumination over any work surface. It consists of a natural cast-concrete base and hand-dyed brown-leather-wrapped column topped by a cantilevered shade crafted from a sustainably sourced, barnacle-flecked green Abalone seashell with a blue-and-green-hued mother-of-pearl interior.
Fully adjustable swivels at the top and bottom of the column allow for fine-tuning of the shade angle and overall silhouette. Unfinished brass hardware, a khaki cloth-covered cord, 1940s-style plug, and contrasting inline switch complete the refined profile of this hard-working, all-natural beauty.
Made-to-order by hand in a numbered, signed edition by artist Christopher Tennant.
