This original vessel from China’s Shanxi province, crafted around 1900, features an exceptionally rare glaze. Its coloring – a deep olive brown with natural variations – is seldom found in this region. While most Shanxi vessels appear considerably darker, this piece features an unusual warmth that draws attention without demanding it.

Paired with a handcrafted linen lampshade in a light, natural tone, a calm tone-on-tone relationship emerges. The shade echoes the earthy nuances of the vessel, allowing form, material and colour to come together as a cohesive whole. The light is soft and evenly diffused, resulting in a clear, composed atmosphere.

Defined by its remarkable proportions, the object commands a strong, self-contained presence within a space. It is not an accompanying light, but a sculptural lighting object – shaped by material depth, rarity and quiet authority.
