Description
Evoking the gentle ripples of Sun Moon Lake, this motif soothes the soul like a breeze on water. The fabric, wrapped and then delicately compressed around a pipe, folds into elegant waves under the artisan's movements. Each creation, crafted by hand, is born free and unique—like a murmur of the lake transformed into matter.
Founded by Pei-Ching Hsiao in 2013, Taiwan-Lantern, based in Amsterdam, revives Taiwan's lighting traditions by celebrating its centuries-old craftsmanship. Far from industrial clichés, the studio weaves objects steeped in memory, where each lantern becomes a bridge between past and present.

The new series of light sculptures named Ambra combines volumes of ancient stones and aluminium. Centerpiece is the Mexican “Toba volcánica” stone that consists of minerals, glass and volcanic debris ejected one million years ago during severe eruptions. Fragments in the geometrical surfaces are testament to these explosions and movement.
The contrast between porous textures and smooth dark red underlines the studios contemporary approach on traditional materials and craft. The connecting components between the sculptural stone elements and the aluminium parts originate from an intensive research of linking unique handmade shapes with industrial parts.
