Lotus mood light made from Capiz shell – pink / light pink with a gold-colored rim
This handmade lotus-shaped decorative light from the Philippines is crafted from Capiz shells, a unique natural product that has been used as a substitute for glass for centuries. The lotus is a powerful symbol of the journey from darkness to light, from ignorance to knowledge. It also symbolizes the seven chakras, the most important energy centers in the human body.
Capiz shells are made from the outer layer of a marine mollusk with the scientific name Placuna placenta, also known as the window oyster. These shells owe their name to the city of Capiz on the island of Panay, where they are traditionally harvested from the shallow coastal waters. After careful cleaning, the shells are naturally translucent. In the orange version, when a light is placed inside, they create a warm and vibrant play of light that radiates energy and coziness.
Capiz shells are a natural product and may have minor imperfections. This makes each decorative light unique and highlights its handcrafted character. An atmospheric and meaningful decoration for meditation, relaxation, or as a warm accent in your home.
