PENDANT LAMP, polished brass & bronze, 60ies glass shades

Creator: Thierry Jeannot
Offered by: Marion Friedmann Gallery

Description
This contemporary pendant lamp design is inspired by geometric patterns and angles. The design is based on traditional metalworking techniques such as lost wax bronze casting, hand-crafting of brass parts and using salvaged vintage opaline-like glass. The position of the arms and glass shades can be varied by loosening screws.
Thierry Jeannot (b. 1963) is a French-born designer living in Mexico for the last 25 years. Working across product design, interior and social design, he focuses on generating high added value to recycled materials through design. He is interested in traditional techniques and materials and has worked closely with craftspeople both in Paris (in the 80ies with Thierry Mugler) and now in Mexico City. He follows a design philosophy where design and the production process are never separated. He always designs and constructs the pieces himself and with his close net of specialist workshops, artisans and craftspeople.
