Unique lighting piece by Alvaro Rueda from Spain, industrial design, handmade from cement and steel; 29×18×9 cm, weight 8 g, one‑of‑a‑kind (1/1), with a ceramic E27 socket, bulb not included, in new condition.
Description from the seller
We present an exclusive lighting piece with a unique design, crafted 100% by hand following the principles of upcycling (creative recycling).
About the creator:
I am a university design student taking my first steps in creating signature pieces. This lamp is part of my personal project exploring the limits of industrial materials and their integration into the home. By acquiring this piece, you not only take home an unrepeatable decorative object, but you are directly supporting the work and projection of a young creator. I have many more ideas in development and I also undertake custom orders on request, always playing with textures, shapes and lights.
Main features:
Materials: Solid block of recovered concrete and rods of oxidized corrugated steel. The rough texture of the cement and the natural patina of the rust give it a raw and fascinating aesthetic, typical of the wabi-sabi trend.
Illumination: Equipped with a ceramic E27 bulb holder (standard thick socket). Note: It is recommended to use a warm filament bulb to achieve spectacular contrast with the cold materials.
Manufacturing: One-of-a-kind piece (1/1). As it is handmade with recycled materials, no two lamps are alike.
Style: Ideal for industrial interiors, modern lofts, minimalist spaces or to add a bold contrasting accent in more classical decors.
Its great stability also allows it to be used as a sculptural bookend.
Condition:
New, recent handcrafted creation. The irregular finishes, the porosity of the concrete and the rust on the steel are not defects, but intentional features that form part of the artwork’s identity.
(Bulb not included in the shipment for safety reasons during transport).
