Featherweight is a term that refers to something being extremely light, light as a feather, as others would say. Yet the Feather Weight is the complete opposite. A clever play on the common term, it features an actual delicate white feather in the center of a heavy, transparent weight.
Designed by Atypyk, a small company founded by Ivan Duval and Jean Sébastien Ides and based in Paris, France, the Feather Weight would make a great addition to any workspace, be it at the home or office. The Feather Weight would also make a great gift for colleagues, especially with many Secret Santa traditions in the works for the holiday season. Whatever the case, it is hard not to appreciate the design.
