I almost wish that the name of the Mistral Ceiling Fan wasn't so literal so no one would guess its true nature. Disguised as a pendant lamp, it actually also functions as a fan. Considering that hot summer days are just around the corner, it might be a good idea to order one of these "lamps" in order to combat the heat in style.
Designed by Moooi, the Mistral Ceiling Fan also emits a soft light. However, it is most likely its five yellow wooden blades that will surely be most appreciated in addition to its contemporary inner chrome finish. Of course, the intricately cut glass diffuser will surely draw some ooo's and ahh's too.
Priced at $964.00, it's no wonder that the Mistral Ceiling Fan is dual-purposed.
