Hortensie

The hand-cut openwork pattern throws such a soft, dappled glow across our hallway that it feels like being under a tree in late afternoon. You can see the artisan's touch in every uneven edge of the clay, which makes it feel more like a sculpture than just a lamp.

The light it casts on my dining wall is exactly that soft, dappled glow I was hoping for—the cutouts make everything feel calm. It took a couple weeks to arrive from Spain, but the handmade quality shows in the organic shape.

The hand-cut openwork is even more delicate in person, casting these lovely little shadows across the ceiling all evening. It makes the room feel softer somehow, and I keep catching myself just staring at it. Worth every penny.
