Designed by Arihiro Miyake, the Moooi Coppelia is inspired by the thoughts conjured by the 19th-century ballet Coppelia, which is often considered to be the last Romantic ballet of the era. Inspired by the graceful performance of a ballerina, the light comes to life in a whirl of flowing motion and scintillating light, "dancing" the darkness away. Available in a pair of dynamic sizes, the Moooi Coppelia Suspension Light is a standout piece of lighting design, with its fluid elegance and delicate glow.
