Lilyfoot. A magical limited-edition sculptural light crafted in stoneware, wood and opalescent glass made in collaboration with the dynamic design-driven ceramics brand 1882 Ltd. and the Oscar-nominated set designer and artistic director Shona Heath. “Lilyfoot (they) is an evolved dreamlike character. They have come from a small hidden corner of a set I conceived for a Tim Walker photograph, inspired by a 16th century teenage girl’s secret musical box," explains Heath.
