Description

The Tallo lamp has been inspired by the thallus of a flower; its main body unveils the cable that brings energy to the light bulb crowned at the top.

Onyx has long been used in pre-Hispanic Mexico to create religious objects and jewellery; Mexican onyx is used here for its ancient association and the particular green nuances that make it distinctive. The juxtaposition of onyx and resin is meant as a contrast between precious nature and modern, man-made creation.

The lamp is composed of a studded collar and a light bulb, with a pedestal sculpted in Mexican onyx. Due to the craftsmanship of the resin and the infinite coloured veins of the onyx, each piece is unique.

About Adrian Cruz Visit Showroom →

In 1946, my grandfather Chema, started to work with resin in his small atelier in Mexico City. He created figures such as toys, buttons and household products, but his creativity went beyond the commercial use of the resin. He started to experiment with new forms, encapsulating flowers and insects to create magnificent artworks.

 

When I was a child I used to play with these objects, fascinated by the translucency and the three-dimensional illusion that light creates through the resin. After finishing my studies in Architecture in Italy, I realized that those objects were still in my mind waiting to be revived and played again. Today, using the unique and sophisticated technique that Chema developed, I mix colours inspired by the Mexican culture with pure forms in onyx and marble as learnt through my architect's journey.

 

Through the objects that my grandfather created, he transmitted me his passion. Although I never met him, each piece I design is like discovering something new about Chema.
