The shell is hand-laminated fibreglass-reinforced resin in amber and brown tones with a textured, scratched surface. Lit, the wall glows a warm orange and the fibre structure of the laminate shows through. It stands on a round wooden base and has an inline switch on the cable.

These lamps were custom made for a former restaurant. It is fitted with two E27 sockets, one in the upper part of the column and one in the lower part, so the light is evenly spread along the height.

Originally the column was wrapped in rattan. This has been removed for aesthetic reasons, which leaves the resin surface fully visible.
