TINY TINE AND TALL TINE
The Tine Lamp is the result of a long time coming collaborative project between brother and sister, Francis and Valérie Wartelle, seas apart, yet fulfilling a creative vision drafted years ago. Both the base made of North American Oak and the lampshade made with felt are hand crafted to form a unique piece with a contemporary feel and vibrant kinship.
HOW TO ORDER
Each product is handmade as well as custom. In order to fabricate your light we need to match your color palette to it.
We will need a picture of the room where the piece would go, images from magazines or Pantone colors. You can make you order request by phone or email.
PROCESS
Valerie will take your inspiration images and create a shade felt from complementary colors. The shade is typically a gradation around your color theme.
Not to worry, Valerie Wartelle has been a textile/fiber artist for 30 years. She is in the business of colors. Trust the pro!

LIGHT BASES
TINY TINE AND TALL TINE
The Tine lights are designed and made by myself, Francis Wartelle. The Designs are made paying special attention to form and function, this right down to the details such as the color matched weaved electrical wires, the brass knob switches and the sockets. The bases are produced out of Red American oak and are hand finished. The bases can be left as they are or they can be polished over the years acquiring this way a beautiful patina. The Tine Lamps come in two different sizes tt: 23 1/2" (597mm) and TT: 62 1/2" (1588mm). They are made to order.
BASES
HAND MADE FELT SHADES
The Shades are custom made by my sister Valerie Wartelle in West Yorkshire, UK (Heart Felt).
We requires 6 weeks lead time from receiving a color scheme suggestion to final assembly.
We usually request a reference color, may it be pictures of your wall or furniture, an image from a magazine or a Panton color.
Valerie will then create a complementary felt fiber textile that will enhance your room and match the furniture color scheme.
Of course you can request a specific shade shown on this site as well.
They are made to order.
