Bonbons by Ana Kras, a product designer Belgrade, Serbia and based in New York City, are a collection of [geometric light fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caleide) that have been given a crafty touch due to their woven exterior. Although they might look like traditional tribal drums are first, they exist in a much more practical realm. Nevertheless, their playful and [colorful aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banana-lamp) does lend an artistic vibe to living spaces that are made for it or simply need a bit of it.

Like [sculptural lanterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lantern-collection), Bonbons by Ana Kras are absolutely charming. Placed in the bedroom, living room or even office, they would bring a sense of the exotic while cheering up the space immensely. Ana Kras also makes other houseware including chairs, vases and more.
