Description

Our Pezante Table Lamp designed by Loft & Thought was inspired by the matriarchal figure in Julie Dash’s “Daughters of the Dust”. The Pezante lamp is a vision of regal, coastal elegance. Elements of the novel are translated into design features, with the ceramic urn-shaped base inspired by white dresses and the bleached Abaca shade recalling straw hats. Rooted in heritage yet with contemporary simplicity, the Pezante table lamp writes a new story for modern spaces.

About Loft & Thought: Artist and vintage curator Carmen Nash’s nuanced design perspective comes from her spirituality and rich heritage, rooted in experiences as a black southern artist. The Folk and Flora Collection, an assortment of table lamps designed for Troy Lighting, is Carmen’s artistic take on her favorite folk art stories.
