Pendant lamp BASKET

aluminumplasticoriginal design

An aluminium cradle like form held by two hand frosted panels. Designed to tell a story based on a New Zealand Māori creation myth. The Baskets of Knowledge are based on a Māori creation myth in which the gods gave humans three baskets containing the knowledge they needed to live on Earth. They hold the knowledge of the natural world (Kete Aronui: bamboo basket), the spiritual world (Kete Tuatea: polycarbonate basket) and our rational world (Kete Tuauri: aluminium basket). The story of the Baskets of Light is based on a Māori myth in which three baskets were used to bring knowledge down from the gods to the people of the land. Originally released in 2009, we have redesigned them to exclude plastic and this positive movement will give them a new life...and a more sustainable one! - Shipped in environmentally friendly packaging - Easy assembly at home via PDF or online video - Finnish Birch Plywood - Comes with cord, bulb holder (and ceiling rose USA orders). - E26/E27 lamp/bulb required.
