"It appeals to the historic soul; we see it as an emblem of changelessness, a heritage from worlds too remote for our human intelligence to grasp, a tree which has in its keeping the secrets of the immeasurable past." -Sir Albert Seward, paleobotanist, 1938

I find this piece more of an installation or thought, while tho a functional lamp. Reflecting on the content of the website more, the pendant lamp seems to be an artifact within a whole piece of art being the collective site. Check it out, From My Name is Moon , Cathey Billian
