Perpetuating the skills of artisan craftsmen in Northern India, spun brass is beaten into shape by hand to create the elegant, conical shape of the wall light. The striking yet subtle fixture provides a beautiful refraction of golden light, with the shade possessing a practical brass dimmer dial that can be adjusted to direct the light beam to where you need it. The exterior is then sprayed with sophisticated matt black paint, perfect for coordinating with a wide range of interiors, whether used solo or in rows to illuminate hallways.
British designer Tom Dixon rose to prominence in the mid 1980s as “the talented untrained designer with a line in welded salvage furniture.” By the end of the 1980s, he was designing contemporary chairs for Italian design brands like Cappellini before creating his own design company, ‘Eurolounge’, to make and sell his work.
2002 marked a new phase in Tom Dixon’s career with the launch of his eponymous design company which designs and manufactures a wide range of contemporary lighting and furniture inspired by the unique heritage, innovation and the robust, no nonsense engineering of British industry. Tom Dixon’s most iconic designs include the space helmet inspired Mirror Ball Pendant Light, Copper Shade, hand beaten Beat Lights and the Wingback Chair.
Tom Dixon was awarded an OBE in 2001 while one of his most recent accolades includes winning Designer of the Year 2008 from Architektur and Wohnen Magazine.
