For many of us, unworn or cast-off jewelry is relegated to the depths of a jewelry box or drawer; artists Floto + Warner have repurposed these baubles into their 'Pendant Light.'
Each Floto + Warner pendant light is made from recycled and secondhand jewelry, typically sourced from places like Goodwill and Salvation Army stores. When viewed up close, each necklace and pendant is still the garish creation it always was; as a whole, however, the light is quite impressive.
