Terra-Cotta Raw Small Mushroom Lamp by Nick Pourfard

About the Item

Terra-cotta raw small mushroom lamp by Nick Pourfard. Dimensions: Ø 33 x H 38 cm. Materials: ceramic. Different finishes available. All our lamps can be wired according to each country. If sold to the USA it will be wired for the USA for instance. Designed with the intention of creating a light that is multi-directional within it’s own form and functions without additional hardware. A hand-thrown ceramic lamp that is comprised of two pieces. Using a ball joint design, the upper rests on the base allowing for movement of the light in any direction. This helps the user shift the shade as needed, creating an experience that is both functional and intimate. Like all handmade pieces there is natural variation in the clay, firing, and shape. No two items are exact matches, please consider this when ordering. Nicholas Bijan Pourfard is a furniture and lighting designer based in Southern California. Pourfard is completely self-taught in woodworking and machining, though he double-majored in industrial design and business marketing at San Francisco State University. He’s been building furniture and lighting for himself but only started promoting it this past year. Furniture design has its parameters, of course, but it’s allowed Pourfard to contrast the precision of measurement and the patterns of math with something more loose — organic shapes offset by angularity, like his Bloop lighting, where plump handblown glass blobs glow and rest on a base of geometric steel. There’s something companionable, a kind of friendly quality, to his pieces, whether it’s the warmth of his ceramic Mushroom lamps or his Box chairs, which despite the rigor of their form, still invite you to sit.
