René Houben is a renowned Dutch light designer. René has been designing unique lamp shades for more than 25 years. From colorful and exuberant to modest. For every extraordinary lamp base (carefully selected antique and vintage items), he designs an applicable shade. His custom made creations are unique because of his interesting use of form and color. They also stand out because of their indirect, soothing and intimate light. Houben is well known and loved by interior designers and decorators all over Europe.
Bernard Rooke pottery is highly prized among collectors and interior designers. Bernard Rooke was born in 1938 and is an Iconic British Studio potter and Artist. To me Bernard Rook’s ceramic art sums up Studio Pottery perfectly, it is unique, stunning to look at and I think that each piece tells a little story.
