The Met x Eichholtz introduces the Table Lamp Hathor, drawing from ancient Egyptian artistry.

Inspired by a Middle Kingdom relief (ca. 2061–2010 BCE) of King Nebhepetre Mentuhotep II and the goddess Hathor, our lamp features a sandstone body with a black granite base and a linen-mix shade handcrafted in the Netherlands. Its history-inspired allure and refined design bring a touch of timeless elegance to any space.

HISTORIC PROVENANCE

Inspired by the artistry of ancient Egypt, the Table Lamp Hathor evokes a Middle Kingdom relief (ca. 2061–2010 BCE) that once decorated King Nebhepetre Mentuhotep II’s mortuary temple and tomb at Deir el-Bahri in western Thebes. Our contemporary reimagining of the original relief, now in The Met collection, celebrates the timeless elegance of Egyptian artisanship.

Care instructions

How to care for wood veneer

Veneer furniture is covered in a thin layer of real hardwood. Veneers are often used in high end furniture pieces and can be more costly than solid wood. Mid 20th century it became especially popular in interiors when teak wood was often used for Danish design furniture.

To fully enjoy your wood veneer furniture, please follow a few basic rules:

Cleaning and maintenance

Wood veneer requires gentle care to preserve the finish. Dust regularly and clean with a soft dry cloth.

Remove spills immediately as moisture can cause the veneer to peel off the surface. Prevent moisture from getting underneath the veneer by quickly and thoroughly cleaning up any spills. In case of water rings, rub the area with naphtha. Follow up with an application of oil or petroleum jelly to completely erase the mark.
