A lamp inspired by the Stoolen, Uhuru’s signature piece. The Stoolen Lamp is created from collected scraps of hardwood from local workshops. The Stoolen lamp features a natural fiber shade and blackened brass hardware that compliments the understated elegance of the base. Use only with compact fluorescent or LED bulb.
One of our original designs, and still the most popular, each Stoolen is created from collected scraps of hardwood from local workshops and a found bicycle rim (optional). Bill Hilgendorf’s commitment to sustainability and love of found objects brought this piece to life and defined the term “up-cycling” --- using discarded low value materials to create a high-valued item.
Available in custom sizes and finishes. Hand built to order, signed and numbered by the maker in Red Hook Brooklyn and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. Click here to view finish options.
