Porcelain pendant shades 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 pendant shade was a one off piece, inspired by the need to break away from the cylindar and make a different shape. At the time I was thinking about constructing the form as if the clay were cloth.
