Holocene No.1 accentuates the simplicity and beauty of a single flame, surrounding it with a reflective pool of oil, thus allowing it to seemingly float. Contained within its generously sized concave disc of solid brass, this modern oil lamp is suitable for any surface, adding both atmosphere and reflective possibilities to its surroundings. Ideal as a complement to electrical light sources, or as a stand-alone accent for that natural, primal feel.

Holocene No. 3 is not only visually alluring with its polished brass surface and smooth shape; its reassuring weight and solid feel make it a pleasure to interact with.

Pawson’s design for Holocene No. 4 takes the notion of the oil lantern and meticulously reduces it to its essence in terms of function, form and palette, as a container for fire, with the means to carry or suspend. Crucible-like in profile, the lantern is fabricated in stainless steel and aluminium, with matte exterior surfaces and a polished internal core, to reflect and amplify the flame. The piece is designed for indoor and outdoor use and scaled to feel comfortable in a range of applications, singly or in groups, on the dining table or a windowsill, standing on the floor or hanging from a wall.
