Moonbasket





Always on the hunt for unique lighting, I stumbled across these crochet lampshades by Cape Town designer and artist Dani Le Roy of Moonbasket. Dani and her team use natural jute strings, cotton and braids crocheting lovely simple designs with a variety of stitches, designs include lampshades, vases and even jewellery. She says "Crochet is one of the few crafts that cannot be replicated by machine. The unique quality of each handmade item produced becomes the most essential part of its luxury". Her works are available via her website.
