Sheba Table Lamp

The Sheba Table Lamp pairs a paper pulp base and shade with hand-painted stripes in yellow or black. The clean lines create a bold graphic contrast with the softly textured surface, giving the lamp a distinctive balance of contemporary design and artisanal character.

Handcrafted by women artisans in Eswatini, the Sheba is made from recycled newspaper transformed into paper pulp. Each component is shaped by hand before the stripes are carefully painted on, making every lamp subtly unique.

Who made it?

The artisans behind your product

A woman crouches in a gallery space holding a terracotta-colored sculptural vase. The room features minimalist columns, a concrete floor, and other decorative ceramic vases displayed on pedestals in the background and to the right.

Our partner

The woman-led social enterprise in Eswatini (formerly Swaziland) crafts superb objects entirely made from 100% waste newspaper from a local magazine distributor. Experimental yet profoundly anchored in the majestic archetypical shapes of the African Continent, it manifests the encounter of imagination and heritage.

A unique texture

While the collection looks like ceramics, every object is crafted from the paper pulp made in the workshop, then sundried during 4-6 weeks before it reaches us. The irregular texture and the colours originate from the landscapes of Southern Africa, giving the sculptural objects a strong presence and timelessness.

Empowering women

All the products are handmade by women who are employed full time at the workshop with permanent contracts. The team loves to collaborate and create - if you are an interior designer interested in bespoke colours or shapes, we can develop these together!

Light & Powerful

The expressiveness of the collections from Eswatini stuns us and as new objects appear, we are impressed by their strength and powerful presence. The collection encompasses lighting, objects and jewellery, all made from paper pulp with water-based varnish, fully sustainable and impactful in every sense.
