Hand-built one-of-a-kind porcelain pendant light by American artist Charles Burleigh. 

This work, bisque fired and unglazed, renders a striking translucent effect when illuminated from behind the surface of the lamp.  The surface is activated by the hand formed clay, creating variable depths of opacity and luminosity.  It is reminiscent of the work of Gaudi and Tiffany.

Charles Burleigh was born into a family of artisans. His work is the culmination of a lifetime of observation, exploration and inspiration. Each piece in this series begins as an unformed mass and through hand work reveals itself during the process of manipulation and creation. As a result, each piece is unique. Mr. Burleigh’s work can be commissioned in a series of glazed or unglazed finishes.
