Through the centuries, the sculptural tradition of Ukkilan was usually done by skilled men or "Panday Kahn" (wood carver) who were either self-taught or trained through apprenticeship. The carver creates Ukkil design patterns according to the shape of the objective. The artistict techniques are drawn from the instinctive and deep understanding of traditional craftsmanship.

The carving illustration on the lamps are by master carver Data Jamasali that originate from the Sibutan Island in Tawi Tawi province circa 1987.

The Lukis kinukku, an Ukkil design pattern used on wood moldings, has been carved onto our all weather crafted resin lamps.
