Rust Collage Handmade Ceramic Table Lamp
The Rust Collage lamp has the look of weathered, painted metal turned into art. Michael Macone’s collage-inspired shade layers panels of soft blue and warm brown, streaked with rust orange and dotted with small rivet details along the seams. Lit from inside, the rusty edges glow warm and the colors come alive, so it feels both rustic and inviting at the same time.
A Sculptural Clay Base
The base is a handcrafted extruded clay vase, shaped into a tall, sculptural column and pressed with texture. You can finish it two ways:
- Melted glass: glass is melted at the top and flows down the sides in long, glossy streaks. Available straight or twisted in red, blue, or gray, about 24 inches tall.
- Stoneware: fully glazed with no glass, in gray, white, brown, or green. A calm, earthy look, about 26 inches tall.
Each base rests on a distressed wood stand, giving the lamp a grounded, artistic presence. The blue, brown, and rust tones of the shade pair well with every base color, so you can match your room or simply pick your favorite. Because every piece is made by hand, the glaze and glass flow make each lamp one of a kind.
Light for Every Mood
The shade is printed on heavy archival art paper and UV coated so its colors stay vibrant for years. A 3-way switch takes you from a low, moody glow to bright light for reading, which makes it as useful in an office or entryway as it is beside the bed.
