A Heritage Ponsonby Home
In collaboration with twentytwentyone, leading British designers Barber & Osgerby have created a range of lighting drawing on the heritage of Japanese lantern-making. The Hotaru collection launched at the London Festival of Design 2015, and represents the perfect unison of traditional craft with an enduring aesthetic that is as modern as it is timeless.
Named after the Japanese word for ‘firefly’, the collection is manufactured by Ozeki & Co Ltd, a celebrated Japanese company dedicated to making washi paper lanterns since 1891. Ozeki have previously collaborated with numerous Japanese artists and designers and worked with Isamu Noguchi on the production of his Akari light sculptures.
There are two different lantern shapes in the Hotaru range. Double Bubble derives its strong, sculptural profile from the fusing of twin spheres, while Buoy is inspired by a maritime marker – at once anchored and weightless. Both shapes come in smaller and larger sizes, making them suitable for a variety of home and commercial spaces.
The Small Hotaru Buoy Pendant is supplied with black lacquered steel ceiling rose, E27 lamp holder with bulb and 2m black cloth-covered cable.
DIA550mm x H570mm. Ceiling Rose Diameter: 120mm.
