Conceived by Australian designer Ross Gardam, the brutalist Ora Raw desk lamp reflects a desire for purity and honesty in materials and manufacturing. A beloved design classic, the Ora collection celebrates the tactility of aluminium and the calming essence of a single light with expert engineering and refined function.

Limited to a production run of only 10 pieces, each surface of the lamp is hand buffed to create a speculum mirror finish with the piece finished in a natural beeswax. Featuring precision milled components, each user is fully engaged with the physicality of the lamp, with the ability to tilt the shade, direct the warm glow, and rotate it around the body as desired.

Each Ora Raw desk lamp is individually marked with an edition number and Ross Gardam's makers mark. The lamp is also accompanied by a numbered authenticity card hand signed by Ross himself.

Ross Gardam is a team of designers, engineers, and makers, who work collaboratively from ideation to realisation. Merging traditional craft with modern techniques is paramount to the studio's methodology and informs each design. All products are designed and produced in Melbourne, Australia.
