Custom Mercury Lamp
Custom Mercury Lamp
This collection of lamps is inspired by striated landscapes caused by glacial erosion as well as the beautiful colors found in foliated metamorphic rock and the play of light along the horizon at dawn and dusk.
The base of each lamp is hand-cast with hydrocal plaster inside of a unique balloon shape. The interior of each piece is poured with layers of resin, impregnating the plaster with added strength and hardness. Finally, each base is hand-dyed by the artist with layer after layer of custom mixed pigments and then sealed with a UV resistant acrylic coating. Choose from any of our 29 Landscape color ways.
Our shades are made by hand using a heavyweight cotton rag paper and attached to a nickel-plated swivel fixture with a turn switch. An in-line dimmer switch on the cord provides adjustable light settings. Due to the nature of the UV sensitive materials in our lamp bases we recommend using LED lightbulbs exclusively.
