Tom Caldwell, who designed the Cantata table lamp, envisioned a distressed off-white lacquered finish to bring a subtle hint of texture to the body of this white table lamp. The piece is made of wood; the achievement of the drifts on its surface makes it a true artisanal creation. Fitted to the modern shape is a linen shade that draws out the darker tones in the lamp’s fluted body. It is held in place by an antique-brass button finial.
