For the Shino Lamp, Villa & House’s artisans have tapped global artwork to create a modern artifact with museum-worthy appeal. The shapely curves of the double-gourd design feel at once organic and distinctly handcrafted, nodding to the traditional forms of centuries-old pottery. The ceramic body features hand painted strokes of burnt umber, whose imperfect lines and aged effect recall the look of an ancient tribal pattern. The Shino’s sense of antiquity is made even more distinct with its all-over craquelure finish in glazed ivory. Its earthy tones and aged aesthetic find interesting contrast in its clear acrylic base, giving it the look of a rare and priceless relic on display in a gallery or collection. Its contemporary craftsmanship and functional appeal, however, keep it firmly rooted in the present. Topped with one of our signature shades, this lamp is a striking pick for the chic bohemian or sophisticated world traveler. Please note: Villa & House's lamp shades are sold separately.
