Inkster Maken Limestone Lights

Inkster Maken, a new range of lighting using Australian limestone and salvaged hardwood by designer Hugh Altschwager illuminates the Down Under.

Victoria, Australia-based Hugh Altschwager is passionate about the outdoors and handmade items. For Inkster Maken, he combined his two loves into a new range of limestone lights. According to Altschwager, using limestone in lighting provides a “warm, earthly, glow not commonly found in other modern lighting fixtures.” We are fans of these tactile, sturdy lamps and the sustainable production methods behind them.
