About the Item

Table lamp featuring a domed shade constructed from an array of natural seashells set into a sand-textured matrix, creating a richly layered mosaic surface. The shade incorporates a variety of shell types-scallops, clams, and smaller spiral forms-with natural variation in tone from ivory to soft pink and reddish hues. When lit, the shells glow warmly, producing a diffused, organic light. The finial is formed from a single shell, continuing the coastal motif. The base appears to be painted ceramic with a hammered-texture effect and applied floral detailing, including hand-painted daisy motifs and green stems that wrap around the lower body. Dual pull chains hang beneath the shade, each operating individual bulbs, and the lamp has been rewired with a cloth-covered cord.
