A backlighted
layered-glass panel in a case of African Mahogany trimmed with
Hawaiian curly
Koa and African Wenge.
The color intensity
and translucency changes depending on the ambient light in the
room, closely
resembling hot, flowing pahoehoe lava in similar natural light.
The lava is seen
flowing from two different glowing tubes. In the distance,
there is the green
of a kipuka, a small area of forest spared by the lava flow.
Below is a detail
photo showing more of the case. This piece was designed
to display as
elegantly in a corner as well as against a flat wall. The lighting
switch is located
on the top of the sloping back panel where it
is out of sight
from the front, but easily accessible.
These pieces are
individually hand made with extraordinary attention to detail.
Each is unique,
completely original and all patterns for each are destroyed when
the project is complete.
There are some similarities between some of the lamps, but there
are no two alike.
Each is signed by the artist and is accompanied by a signed Certificate
of Authenticity.
