If sold to the usa it will be wired for the usa for instance. Dafne was born after a journey to africa. Its shapes are inspired by the umbrella tree, but rather than provide shades as a regular tree it provides light. Each one of its brass branches, hand shaped with a blowtorch, has cracks where the light shines from. Like resin dripping from cuts on the bark. The brass surface is grinded and deliberately left raw. It’s name is a tribute to the greco-roman myth of dafne, the beautiful nymph that was transformed into a tree after becoming the unwilling object of the infatuation of apollo. Morghen is a multidisciplinary studio that works on the boundaries between design, art and craftsmanship. They rely on techniques passed on by the artisan heritage mixed with experimentation and contemporary materials. Every single piece is conceived, developed and handcrafted in a carefully renovated old carpenter’s shop located in the milanese bovisa district. Every single piece evolves from and assimilates previous theoretical and practical research. Every single piece is unique. Their work encompasses objects, furniture, lighting and spaces.
