Floor Lamp - Round Oriental (Floral)
Ref: CL-CH-O-HSF
The Oriental Floor Lamp draws upon elegant Asiatic influences and traditional Asian architectural forms to create a refined sculptural lighting piece combining architectural simplicity with intricate handcrafted metalwork. Composed around a cylindrical central body entirely hand-sawn by master jewellers using delicate floral openwork patterns, the piece embodies the extraordinary precision and craftsmanship that define the work.
Conceived exclusively as an electrified sculptural floor lamp, discreet concealed lighting sources project light downward through the intricate openwork metalwork, casting delicate atmospheric patterns and reflections across surrounding walls and floor surfaces while leaving the source of illumination itself discreetly hidden. Both sculptural and atmospheric, the Oriental Floor Lamp remains a timeless expression of handcrafted metalwork, sculptural light, and refined contemporary decorative design.

Originally conceived as candle holders, many Yahya pieces can also be electrified as sculptural lamps. Delivered fully assembled and ready out of the box, they require no installation and may be plugged in or supplied for hardwired installation. Each electrified piece includes an integrated inline switch/interrupter and can be supplied with UK, European, or US plugs and compatible drivers corresponding to the destination market.
The hand-sawn upper body is demountable for maintenance, while the LED and driver remain discreetly integrated within the base itself. Candle versions are supplied without candles and incorporate a removable internal candle plate allowing candles to be easily replaced and the interior cleaned.
Brass and aged bronze finishes are typically illuminated at 2700K for a warmer candle-like glow, while polished nickel silver versions are generally supplied at 3000K, better suited to the cooler reflective finish. All pieces are protected with a strong interior varnish, while exterior versions can be produced upon request using waterproofed electrical systems and specialist UV-resistant exterior-grade protective coatings.
Our brass pieces are hand-finished and aged to a rich bronze patination, then protected using a strong satin interior varnish designed to preserve the finish while maintaining the natural depth and warmth of the metal. For regular care, pieces should simply be dusted using a soft dry cloth without water or abrasive cleaning products. Over time, as with all living materials, the finish may naturally deepen and evolve in tone, developing an increasingly antique character that forms part of the beauty of aged bronze and brass.
Exterior pieces are protected using specialist UV-resistant varnishes developed for outdoor bronze sculptures and artworks. While these finishes offer substantial long-term protection, natural weathering and gradual patination remain an inherent characteristic of the material over extended periods. Should the varnish eventually soften or wear after many years, surfaces may be gently waxed and buffed in the traditional manner used for fine leather or bronze objects.
Polished nickel silver is not an electroplated finish but a solid material that may naturally soften slightly over time through handling and exposure. As with traditional silver objects, the surface can be restored using standard silver polishes widely available in hardware stores, or through traditional methods such as gentle lemon-based cleaning. Microfibre cloths are recommended for routine care, while abrasive materials and scratching should be avoided. Due to the entirely handmade nature of the work, subtle artisanal irregularities, variations, and traces of hand craftsmanship form an intentional part of the character and authenticity of each piece.
