Black & White Round Floor Lamp

The Black and White Round Floor Lamp is a modern twist on traditional Indian leather puppetry, incorporating ancient craftsmanship into contemporary design. This unique lamp features a round shade made from treated and intricately cut leather, often decorated with motifs inspired by traditional shadow puppetry. When the lamp is lit, the black and white patterns cast striking, artistic shadows on surrounding surfaces, reminiscent of Tholu Bommalata performances from Andhra Pradesh.

Artisans apply their skills in leather carving and painting to create detailed, translucent designs on the lamp's shade. These designs may depict scenes from epics like the Mahabharata and Ramayana, blending cultural heritage with modern aesthetics. The Black and White Round Floor Lamp not only serves as an elegant lighting fixture but also as a piece of art that celebrates the intricate beauty of traditional Indian leather puppetry.
