The Cornish Coast series
Agapanthus Lantern
The pale blue Agapanthus has become a familiar sight along the Cornish hedges as they slope down to the sea on the Penwith and Lizard peninsulas.
This lantern shows agapanthus sprouting from moss covered rocks against a backdrop of crashing waves swept by the beam of a light house at twilight.
This lantern captures the rich colours of sunset over the western seas, when the gorse flames with the orange and yellow of the setting sun and gannets drop into the ‘bridge of the sun’ sparkling across the darkening blue sea, to catch their last feed of the day.
Gorse and Foxglove Lantern

Chough lantern
Synonymous with the recovery of Cornish coastline wildlife is the red billed chough. Depicted on this lantern amongst the sea campion and heather of late summer. This lantern combines the rich rusted surface of acid patinaed steel with a reflective back wall of dark pink. This pink is the richest of colours in our range, a deep wine colour taken from the colour of August flowering heathers that carpet the clifftops of the Penwith peninsula.
This half round column with a richly patinaed rust surface depicts the tide swept beds of sugar kelp off the Cornish coast.
We use hand painted acids on steel to create a richly figured rust surface. This half round form will hang on a wall or can have a painted reflective back piece as a lit column.
