ANAN cloud lamps: dip-dyed cloth in a gradient from deep indigo through pale blue to white, soft gathered folds

ANAN

Handmade lamps and vessels that capture textile in a single moment of motion — like a cloud held in place.

Each piece is sewn by hand, dyed in indigo, inflated with air, then set in a bath of beeswax and damar resin. The wax stiffens the fabric into a translucent shell that glows when lit.

Each piece preserves a unique moment of motion
