Here's some more information from Hubert:
--
Chimney is a collection of hand thrown, kiln fired clay pendant lamps.


They are produced in a pottery studio in Wales and utilise the natural clay of the region.


Using traditional hand thrown techniques each lamp has its own unique character with a textured exterior finish in contrast to a gloss white glazed interior.


Chimney Lights are designed by Benjamin Hubert Studio and manufactured by Viaduct.


The multi award winning Benjamin Hubert Studio was established in 2007 and works with a range of international design brands to develop products that have an inherent timeless quality and user benefit.


The studio works across furniture, lighting and product sectors with a functionally led, austere aesthetic.


Benjamin employs a material and process driven design approach and has explored various innovative material/production techniques.
