Part sculpture, part lamp, this wonderful artwork pays tribute to the beauty of nature using a material of emotional significance for the artist. The Lecce stone is a prized fossiliferous limestone found only in very few quarries in southern Italy, specifically in the Salento area near Lecce, Andrea Serra's hometown. Masterfully hand-chiseled, the led illumination placed inside enhances the exquisite pale-yellow hue and textured quality of this one-of-a-kind piece of art. Signed by the artist.
Information on designer: A sculptor and designer, Andrea Serra was born in Lecce in 1981 and was immediately surrounded by art thanks to his grandfather, a sculptor and painter, and his mother, an art teacher. At the age of 14, he came in contact with Lecce’s famed limestone, forming an unbreakable bond with the material and using it for all of his works. His Creazioni Serra pieces are characterized by soft, natural silhouettes and innovative design, kissed by the Salento sun in an open-roof workshop.
