One-of-a-Kind Hand-Beaded Lampshade with Cowrie Shells
An exceptional collector’s piece for those drawn to African craftsmanship, artisan design and interiors with soul.
Rare lampshade created from a vintage hand-beaded cache-sex from Cameroon.
Featuring intricate glass beadwork, geometric patterning and cowrie shell detailing, this piece has been thoughtfully reimagined from a ceremonial adornment into a functional object for the home. When illuminated, the beads and shells cast a beautiful warm glow and striking shadow play.
The original cache-sex was gifted to me by a friend from Cameroon and transformed as part of my ongoing exploration of repair, reuse and material storytelling.
Sold without lamp base. Lamp base available for sale.
