About this Product
The Traverse bent plywood table lamp takes its inspiration from the gorgeous tart cherry trees found in around Traverse City, Michigan. The lamp has a classic shape with a modern bent ply twist that will make a statement beside the couch, on a sideboard, or in the office or bedroom. It features a gorgeous walnut outer layer that adds a bit of sophisticated warmth to any room.
Each lamp is handmade in my Leonard, MI studio. Its modern, minimal aesthetic is courtesy of the hand-layered bent plywood construction which creates a stronger yet lighter material than solid wood. I start out with 17 layers of sustainably-harvested wood that I glue, layer, mold, trim, sand, and finish by hand, so each one is impeccably made and completely unique. The satin oil finish creates a rich, natural look that’s durable and is water- and stain-resistant. It’s applied by hand to ensure complete coverage, optimal thickness and a durable hand-rubbed lustre, so the Traverse will keep its gorgeous good looks for years to come.
The standard cord color is black, but select "other" for your cord color and leave me a note if you have another color in mind.

Ciseal
Meet the Maker
Ciseal was inspired by the Midcentury Modern architecture and design that’s so prevalent in and around Detroit. The thoughtful, functional blend of nature and the modern, clean lines of these buildings influenced me to create my own designs using the natural material and modern method of woodlayering.
Ciseal began in 2013 with a few layers of wood veneer, a bottle of wood glue, a handmade mold and some clamps. Those ingredients made my very first product - the Ray iPad Stand. Ciseal has been growing steadily ever since - supporting my design habit one bent plywood product at a time.
I proudly design and make all of my products by hand from sustainably-harvested wood in my Leonard, Michigan studio. Each Ciseal product is inspired by the beautiful state of Michigan, and thoughtfully vetted through countless hours of research, design, and crafting. The finished products I offer are the result of many iterations and fine tuning for comfort, usability, and style. The quality of my products is in the details: the intentional curves, the hand-layered, sustainable wood veneer, and the ease of use.
Ciseal is an Irish Gaelic word for layer. It's pronounced KISH-ill by the Irish, but I've taken to pronouncing it sis-EEL
Woodlayering is my craft, but as a person, I'm always learning, growing, and evolving. Ciseal is about how we layer the trappings of life in a way that uniquely speaks to our soul. It’s a way of life, a mindset that focuses our attention on finding and embracing all of the layers that matter so that we are free to take our pleasure seriously.
