We’ve taken our most popular shaped shade, slip-cast in earthenware, and added a semi-matt glaze to give it a lovely satin texture. This large and striking pendant light is available in three colours, all of which start with a white body earthenware clay to enable a purer glaze colour.
For our Chroma range, we chose ‘quiet’ colours creating a sense of calm and rooted in inspiration from nature: sand dunes, straw and raven’s feathers. Working with a glaze specialist we developed these into the Chroma Oyster, Mustard and Liquorice as a satin glaze, which is soft but retains some reflection. The Liquorice was particularly difficult to get right but in the end was created by altering the cobalt content of the glaze and making it a bit more matt. These three colours blend nicely together so they can be used in combination or in mono-chrome.
The lip of the shade has been left unglazed, so the natural earthenware white comes though, revealing the materiality of the shade and adding some contrast to the colour.
