TABLE LAMP XIX
Lamp is made of senegalese calabash.
It’s made of the thickest gourd I’ve been working on so far (about 1cm) so the carvings are really deep and structure looks more 3D.
Also because of the thickness, drilling had to be done very precisely in the direction of the light source.
At the bottom of the lamp is closing part locked with little magnets.
The base is finished with brown jeweller waxed string.
At the end of the base, on the wooden part is carved Calabarte logo with month and year when lamp was finished.
Diameters of the gourd are 22 and 24cm. Lamp is 39cm high. Diameter of the base is 26,5cm.
