This great Handmade Gourd Lamps is made by Robert D (Gourdlight), which has small perforations on its surface for giving the impression of original lighting. The designer says the lampshades are made of gourd- superb exotic fruit native in Africa, and at a very early time spread through the world by human migrations. The design of every lamp is accomplished after attentively selecting dried shells of gourd fruit and drilling decorations into them.
Different elements and colors of the lampshades are created by carving deeper or shallower into the layers of wood. Every lamp has more than a thousand of perforations in different diameters which allows light to sparkle through the lampshade and cast the elements on the surrounding walls. Lamps are finished of with jewelery waxed strings which complete the lamps design. Each of the lamp is different because shape was basically created by nature and their patterns are always diverse.
