Norphia, a Riverside-based design studio, recently debuted its newest creation, the Seashell Night Light, in downtown Riverside during the city’s annual Festival of Lights. As the city glowed throughout December around the historic Mission Inn, Norphia chose this moment to introduce a product centered on light, warmth, and personal connection.

Displayed just steps from the Mission Inn, the sculptural seashell lights drew steady attention with their soft glow. Visitors admired the lamp’s ocean-inspired form and were equally drawn to its customizable 3D photo feature, which transforms personal images into illuminated keepsakes. Many noted that beyond personalization, the lamp’s elegant and romantic shape made it meaningful even on its own.

The response was immediate and heartfelt. One guest, Linda M., shared that she planned to reserve a lamp as a gift for her mother, while another visitor, James R., said he was considering one as a Valentine’s Day gift. Families and couples lingered, often returning with friends to experience the light together.

Surrounded by sparkling streets and festive crowds, the Seashell Night Light became part of the celebration — a quiet, intimate glow within a city full of light.

Norphia will continue showcasing the Seashell Night Light most weekends throughout December, welcoming visitors to experience the design in person near the Mission Inn in downtown Riverside.
