A Cathedral Window Made Entirely of Wood

A pointed arch of solid driftwood rises from the floor like a cathedral window. Four curved structural ribs form the outer frame, meeting at a sharp point at the top and flaring outward to a wide, stable base. Between those ribs, dozens of carved veins branch outward from a central midrib, each one cut clean through the wood wall. Warm amber light fills the entire interior and pours through every vein opening, projecting a feather-shaped constellation of golden light across the floor, the furniture, and the walls.

The Body Is the Shade

There is no lampshade. The entire structure functions as both sculpture and luminaire, with the carved vein openings controlling where light escapes and how much reaches each surface. The effect is closer to a stained glass window than a conventional floor lamp. From across the room, you see a glowing feather standing upright. Up close, dozens of individual light slots, each shaped and angled slightly differently, each casting its own narrow beam in a different direction.

Every Vein Negotiated with the Grain

The vein pattern is botanical but not perfectly symmetrical. The left side does not mirror the right exactly. Some veins are spaced wider, some narrower, following the natural grain of the specific driftwood blank. Where a knot or grain swirl interrupted the planned path, the artisan adjusted the angle to work with the wood rather than against it. That organic irregularity is what separates this from a laser-cut or CNC piece.

Two Tones, Dozens of Light Slots

The outer faces of the ribs and veins show darker walnut-brown tones with the compressed, weathered texture of aged wood. The inner faces and vein edges show lighter honey and caramel tones where the carving exposed protected heartwood. When the LED is on, every vein becomes a dark bridge silhouetted against golden light. When off, the piece reads as a dark wood sculpture with visible depth and shadow in every opening.

360° Light with Wireless Dimming

A vertical LED strip mounted along the central midrib radiates outward through the vein openings on both front and back faces. Placed against a wall, the back face illuminates the wall with the vein pattern in reverse. Placed in a room center, it projects the pattern onto multiple surfaces simultaneously.

The LED driver includes a wireless remote with full-range dimming and warm-to-neutral color temperature adjustment (2200K to 3000K). At the warmest setting, the glow matches candlelight. At the neutral end, enough light to read by within arm's reach.

The Base

The four ribs flare outward into wide feet, connected by a solid driftwood crossbar at floor level. Wide, heavy footprint for stability. Felt-padded on the bottom.

Care and Placement

• Dry indoor use only. Works on a covered terrace in dry coastal climates. For humid environments, keep indoors with climate control.
• The thin vein bridges are more sensitive to humidity changes than a solid-body lamp. Climate-controlled rooms are ideal.
• Dust the upper edges of each vein with a soft brush or compressed air. Wipe the outer ribs with a dry cloth.
