‘White Leopard’ Big Bambu Monumental Floor Lamp — Model No. 039

Introducing the Wild Kingdom Collection, a scene-stealing set of maximalist art lamps inspired by the majesty of nature.

The monumental Big Bambu floor lamp series is a first in several respects: It’s the first series we’ve made using contemporary (i.e. non-vintage) traditional Japanese parasols; the first we’ve made at such an outsized scale (though it does have a forbearer); and the first that required a blowtorch. 

The “White Leopard” Big Bambu Floor Lamp consists of a triple-tiered black concrete base, a lacquered 1.5” bamboo column with pyrographed leopard markings, and a cloth-like ivory rice-paper shade, with seaweed-green lambskin and matte-black leather accents, made from a contemporary Japanese parasol. The shade, which has been waterproofed with tung oil in the traditional manner, is reassuringly durable and difficult to tear.

Unlacquered brass hardware, a mustard-yellow cloth-covered cord, and a vintage-style plug complete the modernist vibe. The column is detachable from the base for easy shipping via UPS in three separate boxes.

Made-to-order by hand in New York in a signed and numbered edition by artist Christopher Tennant.
