Reed
$290.00Sculpted table light
Warm rain, falling slowly.
Hundreds of fine vertical lines run the height of Reed, close enough to read as one texture. The light slips between them and lands on the wall like soft rain — the quietest piece in the collection.
Design by Leora. 3D-printed, hand-finished, numbered & signed by Two Waves in Perth, Western Australia — sold under commercial licence.
Live with it
It changes the room at sunset.
Switch it on and the room slows down. A warm 2700K glow, diffused through a sculpted shell — soft, ember-warm, never harsh. A quiet object by day, the heart of the room by night.
Printed layer by layer · ~4 days per shell
The material
Grown from plants, not pumped from oil.
Every shell is printed in PLA — a plant-based bioplastic made from fermented corn starch, not petroleum. We chose it for the way it carries warm light, and because an object you keep for years shouldn't cost the planet a thing. Tap through what that actually means.
PLA is made from fermented corn starch — a renewable plant sugar, not crude oil. No petroleum, no toxic off-gassing, no harsh chemical smell. A material you can live beside, in the rooms you spend the most time in.
Printed in low, slow layers and finished by hand, each shell is rigid, stable and made to live with you for a decade — not a season. The bulb and cord are replaceable, so when something wears you repair it instead of binning it.
At the end of a long life the shell is fully recyclable and breaks down in an industrial composting facility — back to where it came from. Nothing here is destined for landfill.
Paired with a warm 2700K LED that runs cool and sips power. The PLA diffuser softens the light into an ember glow — gentle on the eyes, easy on the room, kind on your bill.
The making of
Each lamp is a small piece of art.
Around four days of slow printing, hand-finishing and signing — the story behind every Two Waves piece.
01 Concept
It begins as a sketch — a shape that could carry warm light and feel calm. We refine the silhouette in 3D, testing the way light passes through every wave and fold.
02 Modelling
The silhouette becomes a digital mesh — every ridge mapped in CAD. We test how each line catches the printer head and how the glow will read once it's lit from inside.
03 Printing
About four days, layer by layer. The printer lays down plant-based PLA in low, slow lines. The texture you see on the surface is the path of the nozzle, recorded permanently into form.
04 Finishing
Sanded by hand, wired with a warm 2700K bulb, then signed and numbered. Each lamp leaves the studio with our small mark on the base — yours, and no one else's.
Made well
The details, on purpose.

The two of us
Made by hand, by Leo & Orne.
We're Leo and Orne. We sculpt every lamp ourselves, from a small studio off the Indian Ocean in Scarborough, Perth. No factory, no warehouse — when you place an order, the two of us print it, finish it, sign it and pack it.
That's the whole promise of two waves: paired, patient, full of an energy that doesn't ask permission to keep coming. When your lamp arrives, you're holding a piece of exactly how we work — you'll feel it when it's on, and notice it when it's off.
- 2 People in the studio
- ~4 days Of slow printing per lamp
- 100% Signed & numbered by hand

Our promise to you
Buy it with no second-guessing.

Live with it for a month. If the lamp isn't right for your room, send it back and we'll refund you in full.
Checked one by one
Nothing is mass-produced. Every shell is inspected, hand-finished and signed by us before it's allowed to leave the studio.
Made to be repaired
Standard E27 bulb, replaceable cord, a material that lasts. Built so you keep it for years — not replace it in a season.
Frequently asked
What you might want to know.
How long does shipping take?
Australia-wide: free, tracked, 3–5 business days from dispatch. Internationally: 7–14 business days. Each lamp is made to order and finished by hand — please allow up to 5 working days production before it ships.
What bulb does it use?
A standard E27 socket. Every Two Waves lamp ships with a warm 2700K, 6W LED bulb — the right temperature for the diffuser, and easy to replace anywhere.
Are the lamps really made in Perth?
Yes. Every lamp is sculpted in plant-based PLA in our Scarborough studio in Perth, Western Australia. Leo and Orne hand-finish, sign and number each piece before it ships — there's no factory in between.
What is PLA, and is it safe?
PLA is a plant-based bioplastic made from fermented corn starch — not petroleum. It's stable, odourless and safe to live with, and it's fully recyclable and compostable in industrial facilities at the end of its life.
What does 'numbered edition' mean?
This is our first collection. Each lamp is made to order, then numbered and signed before it ships. Once a piece sells out it isn't re-printed in this edition — what you receive is genuinely one of a limited run.
Can I return it if it doesn't fit my space?
Of course. We offer a 30-day in-home trial — if the lamp isn't right for your room, send it back and we'll refund you in full. We'd rather it found the right home.
