Shade Color

With its natural textures and quirky proportions, the Duende Lamp brings a touch of artistry and warmth to any room.

These handcrafted table lamp's ceramic base and dried palm, hand woven lampshade, are the work of two Mexican artists: Eligio Zárate Blanco and award-winning Belén Perez Garcia. Belén has found a way to take her cultural craft tradition and apply that knowledge with respect for the past and openness to new forms and opportunities. We are so inspired by her, and are thrilled to work with her and support the survival of indigenous craft.

PROCESS + PARTNERS

Belén Perez Garcia has won awards for her fine palm weaving. She weaves in a group of local women who harvest and process young palm leaves to produce the sage green shades, and mature palm leaves to produce the blonde shades.

Eligio Zárate Blanco is a celebrated potter from Santa María Aztompa whose craft has been passed down through generations of family. The red clay they use comes from local mountains.
