It was first unveiled a decade ago with a rounded form made carefully by hand from polystyrene foam and complete with smooth or rough plaster on top. Now, the lamps come in the option of a metallic finish or other futuristic forms, including a [fully ceramic variation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stunning-lighting). The Ukranian designer was influenced to create the lamp to mimic clouds and form light in a sculptural way. The various lamp iterations include "Khmara Smooth, Khmara Rough, Khmara Metal and Khmara Ceramic." It comes in a range of colors and finishes and seven sizes.
