It is amazing to see how the Southwest lamps, with their various shapes and patterns, can influence a room that was previously boring, into a mood inspiring cowboy masterpiece.  The sand art lamps are created by placing glue on the lamp where a certain color of sand is to go. The various colors of natural sands are then dropped from a clinched fist, onto the lamp, in the desired patterns.  The skill levels for accomplishing a work of art are incredibly difficult.  The symbols, passed for generations, may be strange for us today, but to the Indians this art was a way of recording historical events, performing medicine, and sometimes used during worship.

Each lamp you choose is decorated by an artisan with years of experience in sand art and history.  Do not confuse this quality with cheap imitations from India.  These Indian artists are from America!
