Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

These Loaded Ceramics Gun Lamps are Locked and Loaded

— December 24, 2011 — Art & Design
These handmade Loaded Ceramics gun lamps are hand constructed from slip-cast ceramic. The violently witty lamp series features three different models that include an AK-47 standing lamp, a Tri-9 mm gun lamp and a 9mm gun wall sconce.

Every intricate piece is slip-cast through a custom plaster mold and reproduced to make the final product. These loaded light bases are finished with a semi-matte glaze which shows off the elaborate detailing involved in each gun. These drop dead gorgeous gun bases are paired with sleek black shades in a matte finish. The shades, lined in gold create a glowing aura when lamps are lit up with an image reminiscent of guns being fired.

These dynamic and imaginative pieces are a decorative statement accessory or a killer gift for the holidays.
