Made in Marrakech

A maalem's hands, not a mold.

Each shade is cut and pierced by hand, hole by hole, in solid brass. The small drifts in the pattern are the signature of the person who made yours.

You order, we confirm the size and finish, the piece is made, then it ships to you fully wired, in three to four weeks.

Seen lit

At night, it becomes the room.

Pierced brass throws its pattern across walls and ceiling, one warm constellation from a single bulb. Fit a warm bulb, 2200 to 2700 K, and the metal glows like candlelight.

This is why these lamps get bought twice: once for the object, once for the light.
