Made up of separated components, the metal lamp shades of the Levels hanging lantern collection, by Form Us With Love, allows each piece to hang off of the top element.

This creates a multilevel surface that is stylishly smooth and shiny, and also has the ability to be folded up and stored or shipped as a compact unit. These interlocking domes are lightweight and imbue a playful element into the modern pendant lamps. Three finishes including copper, gray and white, as well as three different sizes allow decorators to get creative with these lights, assembling them in different mixtures of color and size at different height variations.

With its glossy finish, the Levels hanging lantern collection makes high-end style more accessible.
