3 Elements Of Moroccan Lamp Designs
Moroccan lamps are very distinctive in their colors and styles. If you are planning on decorating in Moroccan Style, adding a few of these lanterns, lamps or chandeliers will do a great job of bringing it all together to create an authentic Moroccan atmosphere.
Home lighting is one of the most important aspects of decorating and Moroccan lamps are incredibly versatile. Whether you prefer large lamps and lanterns that sit in corners or smaller lamps for decorating table tops, night stands and end tables, there is a Moroccan lamp design to suit your taste. If you want to add something special to your room, you cannot go wrong with decorative Moroccan lamps.
Moroccan decorating is about color, texture and design. Moroccan furniture, rugs and accessories are known for their vibrant colors and designs. Lighting is no different. Moroccan lamps and lanterns are not just “pretty lights” — they are as individual as you can get.
1. Color in Moroccan Lamp Design
Vibrant colors of the earth and sky are the stand-out colors of Moroccan decorating. Lamps are usually made of colored glass or are painted with henna for artistic design. Blues, yellows, reds, oranges and greens all compliment each other in Moroccan decoration. Moroccan lamps could be either one color while others are made with individual pieces of stained glass in a rainbow of colors. As with other elements of this design, the contrasting colors add a depth and interest.
2. Texture in Moroccan Lamp Design
Artisans and artists handcraft the lights with various metals, skins or glass. Filigree, colored glass, sheepskin, goatskin, brass, wrought iron and antiqued metal make up many of these exquisite lampshades and lamps. You will find lamps with strings of beads as their shades. Beaded lampshades add a whole new dimension to a home decorating project.
3. Design in Moroccan Lamp Design
Moroccan lamps are made in various shapes. You can find curved lamps that resemble the flame of a candle range from a few inches high to several feet tall. You can also find huge lanterns that sit on patios or in corners of the home. These lanterns are made of metal and glass or may be all metal with intricate designs including small spaces for light to shine through. The result is spectacular! There are also round lamps and half moon lamps among the various designs of Moroccan lamps. Sometimes colored glass is used but many times sheep’s or goat’s skins are stretched over the metal and skilled artists paint designs on them with henna. The way in which beads are used can be varied to make up several types of beaded design — again making for uniqueness in each individual lamp.
Each Moroccan lamp is a new wonder for the eyes. Even those Lamps that are made to suit matched sets are different enough to be individual in and of themselves. These lamps have been handmade by artisans and artists for hundreds of years. With the variety of Moroccan designs, it is pleasantly surprising how it all fits together beautifully. The impressive color tones of Moroccan lamps combined with creative design make for a warm and attractive interior in any home. If you are looking for unique, handcrafted originals you cannot go wrong in choosing Moroccan lamps.
