Product Description
The x+l Floor Lamp, is part of a collection of objects designed by Amsterdam based design duo Xander Vervoort and Leon van Boxtel to re-cycle small blocks of wood that are produced as residual waste in our furniture production process. The wooden base of the lamp is made with these up-cycled teak blocks. Each block is shaped, curved and polished by hand prior to assembly, making it a labour and skill intensive process. The lampshade is made with an outer lining of hand-spun raw silk fabric and an inner lining of thin cotton fabric.

Product Options
We offer this product in a choice of three wood finishes: Natural Teak, Dark Stain and Black.
For the Natural Teak finish, the wood is sanded and finished with hard wax oil to bring out the natural, golden-brown colour of the teak.
For the Dark Stain finish, a coat of water-based, teak stain is applied to give the wood a darker teak shade, followed by a coat of sealer.
For the Black finish, the wood is sprayed with an eco-friendly, water-based paint that leaves the grains and patterns visible.
For the lamp shade, we have a choice of three raw silk fabrics from Zanav.
