Text about these lamps on the company’s website:
“Travelling through Africa, William and Annet were touched by the slenderness and pure beauty of the branches and trees scattered across the land. Just as nature comes in all forms and shapes the Hollywood line is equally diverse, including round, conical and square shapes.”
