Currey and Company One Light Floor Lamp from the Sunbird collection in Natural/Brass finish
The undulant shape of the Sunbird Floor Lamp is achieved when wood is rotated on a machine to carve its outline. This requires great skill because it has to be manipulated at 90-degree angles to create both the smoothness of the surface and the knottiness of the shape. Ian Thornton was playing around with profiles to see what interesting shapes he might achieve when he conceived this graceful design. The tan lamp sits atop a metal base in a brass finish and is topped with an off white shantung shade.
