Patrícia Lobo Ceramics
Ceramics applied to lamps. There is light in the hands of Patrícia Lobo.
Text: Mariana Abreu Garcia
The brand was born at the same time that Patrícia Lobo discovered ceramics. And the story is even romantic. It was on February 14, 2016 that it all started, when the ceramist’s boyfriend offered her a potter’s wheel workshop. Passionate about arts and crafts, Patrícia had already taken classes in sewing, weaving, jewelery and upholstery – this was actually where she escaped from the demanding professional life she led – but she had never had any contact with ceramics. When she tried it, it was love at first touch.
“That same year we built our house and my first project was creating tiles”, she recalls, but there were already too many options on the market. It was when they started to deal with the decoration itself that light came on: Patrícia created the first lamp and “it was clear that it was that way”. “I’ve always loved lamps, it’s one of the most important things in a space. Even if the division is simple, a lamp builds the environment.” With a career in the audiovisual area in which she felt trapped, the ceramist found in her new hobby a business possibility that she decided to pursue.
He started by working in a space close to his home where he could learn from other potters and trace his own style, until he moved to his home garage, where he had a “stone age” gas oven, which he used to create the palette of six pastel colors that he still works with today.
From the wire to the shade, each lamp is customizable by the customer, and sometimes the structure itself (in brass or lacquered metal) can also be chosen.
