Marcel Wanders collaborates with Christofle for opulent lighting range
BY Lauren Heath-Jones
Christofle has extended its celebrated Jardin d’Eden range with a luxurious lighting collection by Dutch designer Marcel Wanders.
Described as the marriage of beauty and function the collection features a ceiling chandelier, standing candelabra lamp, a table candelabra and a votive tea light.
Handcrafted in high-silversmithing workshops by Meilleurs Ouvriers de France (best craftsmen in France) both the chandelier and the candelabra feature flowing, arabesque ‘branches’, punctuated with hand-carved blown crystal lampshades in either clear or smoked glass.
The table lamp and votive are made from intricately engraved steel. They feature the ornate pattern, also designed by Wanders, of twisting vines, plants and flowers that has come to characterise the Jardin d’Eden collection.
Wanders says: `It’s a new innovative way of looking at the collection. It’s where silversmith's know-how, contemporary design and function meet to make something truly memorable, something you can enjoy today, tomorrow and for years to come.’
