June 13, 2012 8:30 AM
I adore chairs ....
& I am especially charmed
by these tiny chairs
holding up these enormous pieces
of furniture!!!
The furniture was created Brooklyn-based,
Israeli designer
as part of his exhibition at Milan's
"Ron Gilad's hybrid objects combine material wit
with aesthetic play;
they it on the fat, delicious line
between the abstract & the functional."
The exhibition was sublime .....
but these two pieces made me quiver .....
with laughter????
Lee Broom's Crystal Fixtures Light-up Milan 2012!!!
May 17, 2012 8:30 AM
Renown English designer
first Milan installation
included this sparkling, ecclectic collection of
"decanterlights" & "crystal bulbs"!!!
The "decanterlights" are an open edition of recycled vintage
crystal decanters that Broom has collected,
that can be hung solo or
in a cluster ......
creating a spectacular chandelier!!!
The "crystal bulbs" are individually hand blown bulbs,
that are cut into a classic crystal pattern
& etched with the Lee Broom logo.
They too can also be hung alone or in clusters ....
either way, they are stunning!!!
I love Lee's furniture & these "lights" are definitely
a great addition to my
"must-have" accessoration list!!!
