Klay Table Lamp (6000-0233) by Currey

Imagine an inventor who saw a vase sprouting a blossom of light and you have conjured up the creator of the Klay Table Lamp. But this bouquet has a mid-century modern vibe given its vase-like body is made of polished concrete flecked with abalone shells and its metal shade has been treated to a bronze gold finish to give it an industrial feel. The curve on the stem connecting the two is an artful touch, as is the contemporary gold leaf finish on the interior of the shade.
