The Prandina 2012 Collection was recently unveiled during the Light & Building 2012 fair in Frankfurt, Germany. It is comprised of four blown glass designs that are subtly curved and stunningly contemporary. Although each light is crafted out of glass, they each have a metallic finish that suggests otherwise.
The lighting making up the Prandina 2012 Collection have been given individual names. Tiara is simple and elegant with a thin gold line circling the top half. Gong is like a cocoon, both delicate and strong. Bloom has a mysterious appeal while providing light from both the bottom and the top. Lastly, Chorus is a changeling. Despite its cylindrical shape, it boasts odd angles that make it look slightly different depending on where a person is standing.
