Jurgen Bey Moooi Light Shade Shade lamps:

Moooi's collaboration with Dutch designer Jurgen Bey resulted in the design of the Light Shade Shade lamps for the Moooi lighting collection. Jurgen Bey was asked to shift the focus of the Dutch furniture brand Moooi, to explore the frontiers of modern design lighting. The Light Shade Shade Floor Lamp and Chandeliers by Jurgen Bey are part of the stunning Light Shade Shade collection from Moooi featuring a light/chandelier within a light. By day, it is a modernist mirrored shade reflecting the world around it. At night, when lit, the shade's semi-transparency reveals the classic chandelier within. Designer Jurgen Bey imbued the Moooi Light Shade Shade Chandelier with what most fascinates him about life--what is inner and unseen. In this design, Jurgen Bey shows a hopeful glimpse of what often remains forever hidden inside. The Moooi Light Shade Shade collection is offered through Stardust.
