On offer is the Coral Pendant Light, an iconic light fixture widely celebrated as a piece of modern, eco-friendly design. Its intricate, spherical lattice structure was heavily inspired by patterns found in nature, such as coral reefs and ice crystals. This specific piece features a dual-tone finish. The sustainably harvested bamboo plywood exterior is paired with a vibrant lime-green interior. Add a clear light bulb and the Pendant throws spectacular lattice patterns across the walls. Turned off, the piece remains a striking sculpture drawing interest above.
DESIGN: The Coral Pendant was designed by award-winning New Zealand designer David Trubridge (1951) whose education in naval architecture serves as the foundation for his entire approach to material engineering and structural efficiency in furnishings design. The lattice isn't just decorative; the interlocking panels form the actual load-bearing structure of the sphere. This eliminates the need for an internal frame, adhering strictly to the Modernist rule of structural minimalism. The entire fixture is built out of a single component repeated exactly 60 times.
USE: At about 23 inches in diameter it’s a highly versatile size, perfect for entryways, living rooms, or centered over dining tables. When turned on, the internal light reflects the vibrant green hue and projects complex, captivating geometric shadows across surrounding walls and ceilings…adding bit of drama in case the dinner conversation lags.
Signature/Maker’s Mark: Nonexistent. As hung, 33” (with chain & ceiling cap).
