Story Porcelain Lamp par le studio norvégien Vibeke Skar et la designer Ida Noemi Vidal.
« Once upon a time there was a porcelain lamp called Story. Born in Norway between high mountains and deep fjords, it dreamed of lighting up small wooden houses in the dark forests. With a translucent pattern depicting Norwegian traditions, it warmed the hearts of the travelers it met on its journey. »
The lamp is telling a story about the Norwegian traditions and way of living, the contrast between the cold winter weather and warm clothing and homes. Story draws inspiration from melting icicles and the warm light shining through the windows of our cabins in the mountains, it sheds a new light upon traditional Norwegian knitting patterns and gives a new and softer expression to the cold and hard porcelain surface.
Story has an elegant appearance with its characteristic curves. The surface is unglazed and the decoration plays with the texture and the translucency of the material. The pendant expresses a calm and comfy atmosphere. It can hang by itself, in rows or in clusters over your kitchen table, dining table or where ever you’d like to hang it.
