Decanterlight Bell Mini Pendant

The Decanterlight Bell Mini Pendant from Lee Broom substitutes a traditional decanter’s gold spirits for a warm-hued aura of light. Storied fashion and lighting designer Lee Broom’s work is highlighted by a blend of classicism and modernity. Broom brings dressy modern appeal with a cord suspension defined by a braided, textured construction. The glass shade honors traditional glass-cutting techniques with a decorative surface that transforms into dazzling highlights when the lights come on. The crystal shade tapers at the top like the familiar container and seduces with generous curves. A handing light source inside touches up the glass with brilliant notes while sending an ambient down glow through its opening.

Mastering multiple design disciplines, Lee Broom is heavily inspired by the history of British design, from both a decorative and manufacturing perspective. His work regularly references his homeland’s past, though just as regularly offers a slight subversion of those traditional motifs and techniques in his contemporary recontextualizations. Since 2010, he's been collecting British Design Awards on a regular basis, including recognition in 2011 as Designer of the Year and a 2012 nod for his Crystal Bulb, a modern reframing of traditional cut crystal craftsmanship.
