HOME & LIVING CATEGORY WINNER: ETSY DESIGN AWARDS 2020 MARIA EN ESPAÑA

Maria S.C. chandelier is made from laboratory test tubes, set in two plywood bands. This surprising material and geometric shape makes this lamp both classic and innovative. The double glass cylinder recalls Art Deco forms in a unique contemporary way. The use of ready-made objects gives an appearance with a Duchamp idea. The lamp is inspired by the Polish scientist, Maria Sklodowska-Curie, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. The tubes are detachable and the lamp provides the opportunity for visual experiment by creating a variety of configurations and flower arrangements. Diameter: 47cmx47cm (18.5 x 18,5 inches), High: 110 cm (43.3 inches) from celing to the bottom edge. The package contains: - two rings with the hanging strings, - ceramic bulb socket, - ceramic ceiling rose - 100 transparent test tubes Bulb is not included. (E27 type, max to 100 Watt) Tubes are very durable. They should not been broken in transport but you will receive some additional test tubes, just in case. The lamp is very easy to install. You need it just to hang and put the tubes into the ring. To arrange the rainbow, we have used food colouring powder (3 basic colors: red, blue, yellow) and mixed it in different proportions. Food powders are easy to remove, they do not color of glass permanently. Looking for more inspiration?

She graduated in painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw and brings a conceptual approach to her work with the aim of creating products which are not obvious and not standard. She designs products which you can be changed and rearranged together with spaces and which also awaken your own creativity. For example, a lighting fixture turns into a vase, a tablecloth into a playhouse. She credits her design approach in part to growing up in Polish prefabricated apartment blocks during the nineteen eighties. Within limited spaces, products needed to be compact and also multi-functional. She is also an advocate sustainability. With items which can be used in multiple ways, you can limit your purchasing needs. Pani Jurek is also co-founder of the association “Based in Warsaw” which was set up to achieve social design as well as design for public areas. https://www.facebook.com/PaniJurek We ship worldwide, Ask us for the price of international shipping!
