ALMA FLOOR LIGHT

Introducing Alma, a collaboration between Original BTC and Swedish interior designer Beata Heuman, combining ORIGINAL BTC’S best-of-British approach and ethos with Heuman’s inimitable eye for design and detail. Briefed to design a practical collection of go-anywhere ceramic fittings, the process began with a trip to Original BTC’s Stoke-on-Trent factory, where Beata took inspiration from bone china’s “almost ethereal quality”. The resulting shade is one of the most labour-intensive to date, featuring 41 hand-made holes which when lit, says Beata, look like little glowing stars at night.

Nodding to mid-century Scandinavian design, the hand-painted shade and base are presented in three colourways – seaweed, natural and coral.
