Liberties wall light

Borrowing from the distillers and brewers who were at the heart of the Liberties for hundreds of years, the focal point of this new wall light from Copperfish is a cylindrical bulb with meandering filament which appears to hover in a copper vessel..

Attached to the wall with aged brass plates, the bulb mirrors against the polished copper housing, creating an interplay of light and reflection. Blurring the lines between art and function, it is an ideal decorative piece for the home.

Its amber glass tint and low lumen provides a glare-free warm tone and creates a gentle luminescence in any space. Bulb is 75cms while the full light stands at 100cms high.
