Wood Workshop

Lamp shades and lamp bodies of fine wood

The lampshades and bodies are made from sustainably produced oak and walnut wood from our joinery partner in Berlin/Neukölln.

The raw oak wood boards
are cut to size and made to measure
with the latest technology.

By using a thickness planer the boards got precisely trimmed and then ground.

The last step requires careful manual work – the individual parts become one glued lampshade and treated with protective oil.

Concrete Workshop

Manufactured Lamps in Concrete

The lampshades are made in a small factory in Berlin, Friedrichshain exclusively by hand from concrete and gold.

A negative mold is built
before the lampshades
can be cast.

A specially for the lampshades developed concrete mix is weighed and mixed.

The finished concrete mass is poured into the mold and cured for at least 24 hours.

In the last step, the noble inner coating is applied by hand, leaf by leaf.
