We’re longtime fans of the dramatic Floatation Suspension light, designed by lighting master Ingo Maurer in 1980. So we took note when we spotted an eerily similar interpretation at West Elm.
Above: Fashioned from a trio of handmade Japanese paper shades suspended by thin metal cables and with a red iron ring accent, the Floatation Suspension light is available in three sizes; prices start at $2,092 for the smallest version at Lumens. Photo courtesy of Light 11.
Above: West Elm’s Gull Pendant is 32 inches in diameter and is $399.
Above: West Elm’s version has white linen shades and a metal frame.
