Wisteria – Branches2019

The Wisteria Branches are a continuation of the language developed for HyperNature, a sculptural tree commissioned by Champagne house Perrier-Jouët to celebrate the house’s history and connection to Nature.

These magical sconces are fitted with small ‘flower lights’ that create colour shadow play with the wisteria petals.

The stained glass-like ombre of the petals is inspired by the Art Nouveau glass work of Emile Gallé, each individually hand-dyed in Bethan’s studio to build up a complex and unique ‘blossom’ for each light piece. The hand-bent aluminium branches, with a bespoke palette developed with the anodizing specialist Neal Feay, complement the tones of the wisteria, creating a strong colour punch.

The colours grow in vibrancy, as the day becomes night, creating a perfect atmosphere for an intimate evening.

Fabrication:

Anodized aluminum, hand-dyed PVC, brass, electrical cables and LED.
