The Story Behind the Piece
More than a floor lamp, Shikara is a quiet monument. Inspired by the soaring spires of Indian temples, it stands to illuminate and elevate a space. It’s silhouette echoes ancient sanctuaries of India, while its presence feels resolutely modern anchored in history, designed for today.
Named after the Sanskrit word Shikhara, meaning the rising crown of a temple, this piece channels the spirit of ascent, of reaching upward, while staying rooted. Whether lit for ritual or reflection, Shikara transforms any corner into a sacred one.
