Deborah Harper spent much of her childhood and early artistic development in the artisan village of Carmel, California. Inspired by the beauty and whimsical atmosphere of that area, she became a prolific painter and sculptor.

A move to Los Angeles prompted her to venture into original clothing design which resulted in her becoming a fashion designer for several of MGM Studio’s top television shows. Deborah now brings her expertise in specialized fabrics and design to her hand crafted lamps.

On her lamps, she uses only the finest fabrics including many vintage hand embroidered pieces. She also hand dyes her fabrics and fringes to obtain an unusual blend of variegated colors.
