Porcelain lamps are made by mixing paper and porcelain clay. In the firing process the paper burns out leaving a delicate, translucent structure; which suffuses any room with a warm glow.

This large lamp is inlaid with lentils and stained red and aqua. The combination of hot and cold colours with the pitted textures, is reminiscent of photos of super nova explosions.
