Australian-based designer Tom Fereday works together with local heritage premium light brand Rakumba to present the Port Light collection. It is designed to highlight the beauty and purity of crystal, bringing attention to the refractive nature of it.
The light is a sculptural design that is crafted from optically pure crystal glass, arriving in the form of both round and stadium profiles. It can function as a wall sconce if nailed on the wall or as a table lamp. When it is on the wall, it brings an effortless sense of elegance to the space and as a table lamp, it grabs attention due to its fascinating sculptural form. The look of the light is enhanced by hand-finished brass with aluminum accents to showcase contrasting textures.
