The aesthetic is strongly inspired by natural forms and structures, particularly the buttress root system of the Moreton Bay Fig Tree which is referenced in the organically splayed lamp base.<\/p>\n<p>The three dimensionally curved head and base are hand-raised from sheet aluminium. Through working closely with Canberra based Gold & Silversmith, Alison Jackson these components were developed to allow consistent production using traditional panel beating techniques.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5976\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 940px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sohomod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/percy-2.jpg\" alt=\"The Percy Lamp by David Pidcock\" width=\"940\" height=\"1225\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5976\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sohomod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/percy-2.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.sohomod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/percy-2-230x300.jpg 230w, https:\/\/www.sohomod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/percy-2-768x1001.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sohomod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/percy-2-786x1024.jpg 786w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sohomod.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/percy-2.jpg\">The Percy Lamp by David Pidcock<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>A moulded polyurethane carrier supports the lens and articulating joint between the head and base.
