Sculptural Glass Lamps

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Caspian Grande and Mali by Tech Lighting is Beautiful to Behold

— July 23, 2013 — Art & Design
The Caspian Grande and Mali pendant lamps are beautifully sculptural. Although practical in that they provide an ambient glow in the home, their shapely form could easily be displayed solely as home decor. Hanging from the ceiling like some sort of exotic plant life existing only in glass form, they introduce an organic and artistic touch into living spaces.

Designed by Tech Lighting, the Caspian Grande and Mali pendant lamps may be handblown by Italian artisans, but they are inspired by a Moroccan shape. Making a gorgeous statement alone or grouped together, they are available in black, satin nickel, white and antique bronze finishes, which can be complemented with a clear or brown cable depending on desires.
