A bold, elegant beauty. Timeless design and craftsmanship at its best make this a versatile fixture for any room or interior style. The Sophie was designed in collaboration with Portland ceramic artist Bobbie Specker. Our slip-cast parts are handmade in Portland and have variations and imperfections inherent to the artisan craft process.  Namesake: Sophie Scholl was a German student and anti-Nazi political activist within the White Rose non-violent resistance group.
