The Intelligent Eggshell Porcelain Nightlight

The Intelligent Eggshell

The Intelligent Eggshell Lamp is a porcelain nightlight that combines hand-made eggshell porcelain with voice control. The shade is formed through more than forty working procedures, repeated fettling and carving, and three firings, giving a wall thickness within 1 mm. Carved points, lines and surfaces glow like a night sky when the lamp is lit. The tapered housing is curved to sit in the hand and resists tipping. The light is switched on and off by voice, so the hands stay free. The design aims to revive a traditional folk craft.

The Intelligent Eggshell Porcelain Nightlight by Chunlong Xiang was highlighted as a creative illustration of industrial design by the A' Design Award. The Intelligent Eggshell Porcelain Nightlight won the Silver A' Design Award in Lighting Products and Fixtures Design in 2020. The A' Lighting Products and Fixtures Design Award is a juried, academic and highly prestigious design recognition program that recognizes excellent design of chandeliers, pendant lights, wall sconces, table lamps, floor lamps, outdoor lights, recessed lights, track lights and more.
