MATERIALS: The most remarkable feature of this pair of lamps is the texturized body. They are wrapped in genuine hair-on-hide (cowhide leather) with natural tonal variation. One lamp base skews toward a creamy tan hue, while the other features a muted greyish-purple undertone.

The top caps, matching circular bases, and harp hardware are finished in a polished antique brass tone. The underside reveals a specialized genuine leather stamp indicating they were handcrafted in India, renowned for high-quality artisanal leatherwork and hardware casting.

They are crowned with sleek, clear spherical crystal ball finials resting on brass-tone risers, adding a touch of polished sophistication to contrast the rugged nature of the hide.
