What It Is

A Turkish mosaic lamp is a decorative glass lamp made by arranging small hand-cut glass pieces and beads into repeating patterns that glow when illuminated. In this experience, you will build your own lamp by placing each piece by hand, learning a process rooted in patience, rhythm, and visual balance.

In our Irvine studio, this experience is designed to feel welcoming, polished, and easy to enjoy. It is a strong choice for anyone looking for a hands-on creative activity that feels cultural, visually beautiful, and memorable from start to finish.

This was a wonderful experience for a corporate team building event! Everyone loved it and made beautiful lamps. The teacher and company were super responsive and easy to work with

Justin Edwards

The class was a lot of fun, and a good way to spend 2+ hours with your significant other. The instructor was very kind/patient, and provides all the tools/instruction needed to create a beautiful Turkish style lamp. She also allowed us to continue working on our lamps past the 2 hour session.
