Talash

Talash is a pendant lamp made from pressed brass shavings. The shavings are a byproduct of machining, collected from factory production and compressed under high pressure into solid shades.

A clear lacquer or a nano-ceramic coating protects the brass from oxidation and keeps its golden tone. Each fixture weighs about three to five kilograms and uses LED-compatible fittings with warm or neutral light.
