Translucent porcelain pendant lamp lp002
Matte with crystals in light green tones and brown edges and bright green glazes
The lamp measures 12 cm (c.5") in diameter by 20 cm (8") high. With the base for the ceiling, the cable (2 mt - 6'7") and the lamp holder weighs 800 gr.
It is made with translucent porcelain on the potter's wheel. It has differences in thickness of the wall when making the piece, seen when the light passes through the wall of the piece. It is fired at 1250ºC (2280ºF) with a special assembly, the piece comes out completely glazed on the outside.
The zinc silicate crystals form spontaneously, with a schedule of rises and falls in temperature. I cannot fire many of them at the same time, and it is normal that not all of them turn out well. So each one is special and unique, it is a work of high craftsmanship.

With elegant colors, it is a unique and unrepeatable piece. It is a work of elaborate and careful design in all its details.
I prepare the glazes myself with high quality raw materials. They have balanced formulas so that they melt properly on the piece in the final firing. Thus they are transformed into a colored glass, and become an inert material.
This lamp is made with translucent porcelain, unlike the others cups, mugs and tumblers of different sizes, and the stoneware bowls, plates, etc., all made to be used with food found in this store. Porcelain with normal thickness walls and stoneware are the materials used to manufacture the restaurant and home tableware. That makes them food safe, microwave and dishwasher safe, and resistant to sudden temperature changes. There are other pieces like porcelain bowls or salad bowls that also share these characteristics. Because of the wall thickness I recommend washing this by hand.
Porcelain is a harder material than stoneware, although it is more delicate to work with. It allows to make thinner walls and can be translucent. This makes it perfect for special pieces and lamps and not so much for everyday use ware as those of stoneware or porcelain with normal thickness walls.
There are also decorative pieces and others with mixed techniques in which I use other non-ceramic materials.
