AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Sculptural lamp in solid oak, hand-shaped.
The piece preserves a natural wood crack, stabilized by two walnut butterfly keys. The organic curves and the traces of time dialogue with the oak’s softness to create an object with a singular presence, between contemporary sculpture and the spirit of wabi-sabi.
The lampshade is handmade in paper mache based on recycled fibers, offering a raw and mineral texture that contrasts with the softness of the wood. Its simple, organic form is part of an approach inspired by the wabi-sabi aesthetic, where imperfection becomes a source of beauty.
A unique creation, at the boundary between a functional object and contemporary sculpture.
Signed on the back
