I have this connection to deer, they have come into my life at different times. In Indian medicine the Deer represent gentleness, they are here to teach us to touch the hearts and minds of wounded beings who are in our way. Sheds are the antler’s that naturally fall off of deer. I collect them and love that I pair together steel and horn, to create this wonderful lamp.
I have a fabulous person who comes into my studio every Saturday and straightens out my workshop, she said “Susan, it is Father’s day soon, get this wired, make a shade and take a picture of it”, so I did.
Here is a perfect grouping for the Dad in your life. Hope you enjoy looking, I enjoyed making it. I have put it together with matches and a tissue box cover all to honor the Deer.
If you are in the area stop by and see it or visit my online store.

Shandell's is the creative home of me, Susan Schneider, a longtime collector of things vintage with a passion for recycling them into things that make you smile. Shandell's, a working lampshade and vintage lighting studio, has just relocated to 2881 Church Street, Pine Plains, NY 12567. I draw on a collection of thousands of unique handmade papers, antique wallpapers and other very special materials in my work. We will be open by chance or appointment.

Susan, these are great alternatives to the usually boring and trite gifts that dads get. Your work is beautiful!
