Tom Raffield Gwenen Pendant
Tom Raffield designed the Gwenen Pendant for his Cornish-based studio. This studio focuses on sustainability and its responsibility as a brand to contribute towards the well-being of our planet. Each choice of timber is sustainably sourced and expertly crafted into pieces that will last a lifetime. The ringed configurations of wood that make up the Gwenen Pendant are created through a process of steam-bending. This is a low-energy, low-wastage method that bends solid wood beyond a seemingly possible point. When illuminated, light is reflected against the rings of wood, creating a display of light and shadows on adjacent walls. The open bottom allows for a downward directional light that fills the room with light.
The Gwenen Pendant is a mesmerising fusion of expert craftsmanship and nature-inspired design. It is available in a choice of ash, oak, or walnut, which weaves together to create an exquisite lighting centrepiece. Ash, the lighter of the three, is an incredibly tough hardwood that becomes supple and versatile when steam-bent. Its appearance varies in tone, grain, and colour from one tree to another, making each piece created completely unique. Oak is a popular choice for lighting and furniture within the home, and its light, warm hues blend seamlessly into a range of interiors. Walnut is the darkest of the three with rich, chocolatey tones that exude luxury. In large spaces, display the three finishes in multiples against a boldly painted wall to create a striking contrast of colours in a stunning maximalist display. Alternatively, hang a single Gwenen Pendant above a dining table or desk to create a focal point in the room.
Please Note: This pendant light is supplied with a brass socket and ceiling canopy with a black cable as standard. Other options are available, please contact us for more information and pricing.
