Designed by lighting company Shakuff, the Raindrop collection boasts a lighting range that resembles the appearance of rain falling from the sky. The company describes the oblong lighting as "sculptures of light." Each light features multiple individual pendants to create a dramatic yet elegant focal point.
The Raindrop collection's simplistic design elevates the decor scheme of any room. While it is a showstopping piece, it is also unassuming due to its precariously placed raindrop shapes. Designed to accentuate space, the sculptural lighting makes room ceilings feel higher and more spacious. The lights are made out of blown pyrex glass, steel, and brass. Each smooth pendant is meant to inspire the rejuvenating feeling of the first few drops of rain on the skin.
