Part of the wider Philosophical Egg collection, the light takes inspiration from the mysterious pendant that appears in the famous Altar painting of Piero della Francesca in the Pinacoteca di Brera in Milan. An egg-shaped, opal glass oval delicately suspends from a sleek, triangular wall mount, available in a striking petrol blue finish, forming an alluring, modern design that can effortlessly become the central focus of wherever it is positioned. Perfect for use in a cluster in a corridor or on a stairwell, or for use individually in a bedroom or living room, the refined composition of primordial shapes forms a longlasting addition to the contemporary home.
Positioned between fine art and design, Michael Anastassiades creates objects that are minimal, utilitarian and almost mundane, yet full of vitality one might not expect.
He launched his studio in 1994 to explore contemporary notions of culture and aesthetics through a combination of product, furniture and environmental design. The studio’s philosophy is a continuous search for eclecticism, individuality, and timeless qualities in design.
Michael Anastassiades trained as a civil engineer at London’s Imperial College of Science Technology and Medicine before taking a masters degree in industrial design at the Royal College of Art. He lives and works in London.
