ABOUT THE ARTIST
One hundred thousand years ago the Florida Keys were a living, growing coral reef 30 feet under water. Fossil Lamps creates their hand built lighting, accessories, and tables from the fossilized sandstone harvested from the dry land of the Northern Florida. It can only be harvested by a licensed company. We select from large slabs with the most intricate fossilized corals and other marine specimens. Once in our studio we start the process of cutting, sandblasting, sanding, drilling and sealing the coral pieces creating each truly unique piece. Each creation is a functional, one of a kind treasure that will last a lifetime.
