Description
Minerva Lantern – Suspended like a glowing sculpture, this hexagonal-shaped pendant marries the streamlined precision of early industrial design with the poetic symmetry of Asian architectural forms. Minerva’s tiered silhouette evokes the rhythmic ascent of a pagoda, each panel unfolding like a roofline in miniature, while the metal framework recalls the latticework of traditional Japanese and Chinese joinery, translated through the lens of 20th-century modernism. Rendered in dark, hand-finished metal with softly illuminated panes of frosted glass, Minerva embodies a dialogue between structure and serenity. The clean, engineered lines pay homage to the Machine Age aesthetic of the 1920s and ’30s, when artisans and architects sought to fuse technology with artistry. Yet beneath its modern rigor lies a quiet spirituality, the meditative balance of light and form found in Eastern design traditions. Whether suspended in a minimalist loft or a grand entryway, Minerva offers more than illumination. With complimenting semi-flush mount and wall lamp configurations also available, Minerva is a nod to industrial heritage and a reverent whisper to the East.
