BABA SCONCE / STONE

Regular price $7,150
The stone sconce, akin to an amulet, marks the first lamp the designer created entirely in stone. Its solid, elongated form resembles a human head, reflecting the mystical connection between humanity and nature. Throughout history, myths have arisen from nature’s influence, but modern life often lacks this connection as we inhabit environments shaped entirely by humans. In Slavic mythology, pebbles found in fields, called “Stone Babas,” were seen as sacred objects with extraordinary power. The earth’s constant movement would unearth these stones, and peasants regarded their appearance as mystical. They cared for the stones, offering sacrifices to nourish the soil and ensure a bountiful harvest. This sconce pays homage to those ancient beliefs, celebrating the enduring interplay between nature and human imagination.
