For her debut collection ‘Pillars of Meerschaum’ with Wexler Gallery for The Salon Art & Design Show, Feyza Kemahlioglu designed one-of-a-kind lighting pieces. Inspired by the architecture and culture of Istanbul where she grew up, ‘Pillars of Meerschaum’ is
a study into the juxtaposition of tradition and modernity. The leading material in her collection is Meerschaum, German for “sea-foam”, a soft white clay mineral, found mainly in Eskisehir, a small city in central Turkey. By taking an antiquated material and giving it a contemporary aesthetic and function, FEYZ brings the old and the new together to create a timeless design.
Turkish craftsman carved the Meerschaum with intricate patterns and perforations to diffuse the light. The stone is combined with hand-blown glass and brass parts in New York. The blown glass compliments the detailing on the Meerschaum by the addition of delicate textures made with cane and gold leaf.

Details & Care:
Each lighting piece is unique, made to order and customizable for size, color, metal finish. As the pieces are hand-made, and sculpted with an intensive amount of detail, each piece will be slightly different in its embellishments, texture and color.
Meerschaum pieces come in parts that fit into each other. A clear acrylic tube fits inside Meerschaum parts to hold them together. Meerschaum is a soft clay material and is hand-carved. There can be variations in color and needs to be handled with care.
Each FEYZ Studio piece is handcrafted and unique. Handle with care. Clean with a soft dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Glass pieces are hand-blown and may have natural variations in form and colour — these are features of the handmade process, not flaws.
