The "Noah's Ark" lamp is a unique and beautiful piece of art made from wood found along the coastline of the Strunjan Landscape Park. The wood was discovered by a treacherous descent down the Cliff of Strunjan, the highest cliff in the Adriatic. After slowly drying the wood for months on the Mediterranean sun, the lamp was carefully crafted into the shape of a boat, with a stunning lampshade representing the sail. The lamp had to be weighted down at its base due to its nonsymmetrical shape, and it was covered with water-based varnish to protect and preserve its natural beauty. The "Noah's Ark" lamp is a testament to the power of nature and the beauty that can be found in unexpected places.
The "Noah's Ark" lamp is a captivating piece of art, carefully crafted from wood discovered in the breathtaking Strunjan Landscape Park. Nestled within the Gulf of Trieste, this park boasts a pristine and unique natural environment, filled with wonders waiting to be explored.
The journey to create this lamp began with a daring descent down the imposing Cliff of Strunjan, an Adriatic marvel sculpted by dramatic flysch rock formations. At the base of this majestic cliff, there was a piece of weathered wood, washed ashore by the gentle waves. The rough charm and unique beauty of the wood made it destined to become something special.

The "Noah's Ark" lamp takes the form of a boat, a tribute to the wood's oceanic journey. Its lampshade, resembling a sail, dances with grace upon the wooden vessel, completing the captivating scene. To preserve the wood's natural allure, it was meticulously sanded in a single direction, accentuating the mesmerizing grain pattern.
However, this unique wooden canvas presented challenges due to its nonsymmetrical shape. To ensure the lamp's stability, it was thoughtfully weighted at its base, a graceful solution to maintain its exquisite balance.
A final touch of protection and enhancement came in the form of a water-based varnish, enrobing the wood in a gentle sheen that accentuates its natural charm while safeguarding its splendor for generations to come.
The "Noah's Ark" lamp is not merely a source of illumination; it symbolizes the essence of discovery, transformation, and the power of nature's hidden treasures.
