Misewell unveiled a new lighting collection at ICFF featuring pendant, wall, and table lighting produced with ceramic, wood, and reflective metal finishes. The lineup includes the Ripple III Pendant, Ripple Bowl Sconce, Q Triple Sconce, Corduroy Table Lamp, and Fin Table Lamp.
The Ripple pieces use circular forms and reflective surfaces that interact with changing light conditions throughout the day. Handmade in Milwaukee and produced with the support of U.S.-based artisans, the Q Triple Sconce pairs three glass globes with a ceramic mounting body shaped by layered circular geometry.
The Corduroy Table Lamp incorporates a hand-finished ceramic surface that references the ridged texture of corduroy fabric. An opening between two curved bands emits a warm glow from the concealed light source. The Fin Table Lamp uses a series of repeating wooden fins arranged around a central diffuser.

Why This Trend Is Growing
- Textured Ceramic Fixtures
- Hand-finished ceramic surfaces bring tactile depth to lighting, creating premium home accents that merge craft aesthetics with functional illumination.
- Material-hybrid Lighting
- The combination of ceramic, wood, glass, and chrome signals a shift toward layered fixtures that differentiate interiors through contrasting textures and finishes.
- Ambient Sculptural Forms
- Circular geometries, concealed light sources, and reflective details position lighting as sculptural décor that changes character across different daylight conditions.
Industries Being Reshaped
- Residential Lighting
- Decorative fixtures with artisan finishes expand the category beyond utility, supporting demand for expressive lighting that anchors room design.
- Interior Design
- Tactile lamps and sconces offer designers more nuanced material palettes, especially for spaces seeking warmth, texture, and handcrafted visual interest.
- Ceramic Manufacturing
- Small-batch ceramic production gains new relevance as lighting brands use shaped, ridged, and layered forms to create distinctive high-value products.
