Calarte's lamps inspired by African gourds ( stylelife )



    Polish artist Przemek, also known as Calabarte, sculpts beautiful patterns on African gourds which later become heads of his extraordinary lamps. When you switch on one of his lamps, the light coming trough the cracks of the gourd turns a room into a dreamlike space.
    Przemek studied building engineering at a technical university and even worked in an architectural studio for 3 years. However, after 7 years of studies he decided that making lamps was his real passion, so he quit both his job and his studies. He traveled far away to Senegal and brought back some of the African gourds which he used as his main material to create his fascinating lamps
