Kiwari Crane: A Lighting Inspired by Japanese Armor by Bec Brittain

Kiwari Crane: A Lighting Inspired by Japanese Armor by Bec Brittain

New York based designer Bec Brittain launched the Crane series of lighting last year through a solo exhibition at Patrick Parrish Gallery and now she’s presenting a new edition that explores curved glass. The original crane-like lamps featured straight borosilicate glass tubes, while the new Kiwari Crane incorporates curved glass that was inspired by Japanese armor helmets.

On display at this week’s Design Miami/ in the Patrick Parrish Gallery booth, the Kiwari Crane comprises a bronze base with the organic lights floating above, taking on a sculptural quality. The fixture is part of an edition of only seven.
