About this project
Thanks so much for checking out our Kickstarter Campaign!
Caravan Pacific, LLC is a company dedicated to creating classic American lighting. All of our lamps are made with responsibly sourced materials and crafted by professional artisans in the USA.
***The lamps are available only to our customers in the U.S.A. and Canada at this time. Please email us at info (at) caravan-pacific.com for international availability.
OUR PRODUCTS
As a company that creates unique lighting products, we go out of our way to ensure quality with every item we make. High-grade wood is used for each lamp and finished with a low-VOC, child-safe finish. The stoneware used is strong and durable. The shades we use are linen, and are also made in the USA. Each lamp is wired according to UL standards. And our packaging is environmentally-friendly and uses a minimum of filler, yet still ensures that your purchase arrives safely.

Shannon is a self-taught product designer who acquired such a passion for midcentury modern lamps that she had to try making one herself. Their organic forms, strikingly captured in ceramic and wood, and the process of making them, transformed her from a desk jockey into a fledgling woodworker. She is currently dusting sawdust off her sleeves as she launches a company dedicated to handcrafted lighting: Caravan Pacific, LLC.
