Our lamps are handcrafted from natural dried gourds. Each piece is carefully cleaned, carved, and finished by hand, making every lamp a one-of-a-kind work of art.

Yes! Because gourds naturally grow in different shapes and sizes, no two lamps are ever the same. The patterns and carvings are also individually designed.

With proper care, they can last for many years. We use high-quality finishes and durable electrical fittings to ensure longevity.

Because gourd lamps are made from organic material that becomes wood-like once dried, they are sensitive to heat. The type of bulb you choose directly affects both temperature and the quality of the light pattern.

For the most beautiful shadow effect, we recommend using a CFL bulb with a maximum of 8 watts.
👉 CFL light is soft and warm, which highlights the carvings and projects sharp, intricate patterns on the walls. This is the best option if your goal is to fully enjoy the lamp’s artistic effect.

You can also use an LED bulb (up to 8 watts).
LEDs emit less heat and are energy-efficient, but because their light is brighter and more direct, the shadow contrast will be softer, giving a more modern, ambient glow.

⚠️ Important:

  • Do not exceed 8 watts with either CFL or LED bulbs.
  • High wattage or heat-emitting bulbs can cause the gourd to overheat, leading to cracks or fire risk.
  • Always allow for proper ventilation and avoid leaving the lamp on for long periods unattended.

Yes, our lamps fit standard CFL or LED bulbs. We recommend warm-white light for the best effect.

Absolutely. Each lamp is carefully wired and tested before shipping. We use certified electrical components.

  • Keep it in a dry place, away from moisture.
  • Dust gently with a soft cloth (no water).
  • Avoid direct sunlight to preserve its color.
