Pao Steel Pendant-350-Soft black

 

An exciting collaboration with Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa, the Pao Steel Pendant is named after the soft, glowing shape of traditional Mongolian Pao tents. By keeping the aesthetics modest and simple Fukasawa creates a beautiful everyday object that is in harmony with its environment. The light source is concealed from view within the shade, resulting in a clean and simple design with no visual intrusions. The pendant’s shades are crafted from steel with a high-gloss finish and are available in different sizes and colours. Their functionality and the deliberate simplicity of the design make them suitable for a wide range of spaces and uses in domestic and corporate environments.

Pao Steel Pendant / Story
